[quote:266d9fcf36="Teamtunafish"]Joe, please be aware that I think [i:266d9fcf36]very[/i:266d9fcf36] highly of Lights, and he did a WONDERFUL job under extraordinary conditions. I have nothing but admiration for him.
He let those boats go because he ordered them over to one of the entry gangways and pick up others. The problem was the order was not carried out - hardly surprising, but it wound up putting Lights in an unfair spotlight vis-a-vie the unfilled lifeboats.[/quote:266d9fcf36] LOL, i know you do Lee, i was just having a rant about it. it wasn't aimed at you, i just quoted you so that everyone would know what i was talking about :wink: |

ME ME ME I WANT TO HEAR HIS VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sorry, i just got over-excited lol. [quote:7b47493ec5="Teamtunafish"]OK, so why do you think he let all those lifeboats go half-illed?[/quote:7b47493ec5] do you know, it annoys me when people make Lights out to be a villian for not letting many men go. i think his intentions were to get as many women and children off as possible and then the boats would return for the men. gee, some people i have talked to make him out to be some sort of man hater, but if he was then he wouldn't have kept the spirits up of those on the upturned life-boat and he wouldn't have risked his life to rescue those men from Dunkirk. ok my rant is over with now |
