[edit] 2005 posts

Regarding the ship's name LE Muirchu, the 'LE' in the ship's title is akin to 'HMS' or 'SS' in English. It is an abbreviation for the Irish words 'Long Eireannach' meaning 'Irish Ship' or 'Ship of Ireland'. Oz MH 23:39, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Thank you to those who have edited my contributions. I find them very helpful. By inspecting the edits I quickly learn the rules regarding style, composition, etc. Oz MH 23:42, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Article contradiction

The article Unterseeboot 123 indicates that the U-boat ran aground on the English Coast and was broken up in 1921. --One Salient Oversight 08:59, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

The textbooks referenced all say that the UB123 is presumed to have struch a mine at the western end of the 'great barrage'. An explosion was heard on October 18. These books refer to editing of u-boat records by Admiral Arno Spindeler. ClemMcGann 20:59, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

The UB-123 sank the Leinster. The U-123 was a different U-boat ClemMcGann 17:46, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
