Why do I feel like we are all experts in a kickass review show about Anne Marie's plot line?
If this was a video, we would all be in agreement she is gonna die....
And its like we are obsevers....One part is the old trope of watching a thriller where a character is going to look in the basement of the old creepy house..... "No, no, no - don't do it..." Most of us say to the screen...
The other part is that most of us knows some young soul we put in place of Anne-Marie and don't want the inevitable to happen.
Oh. I wonder who the next owner will be.
Damn it, I may actually have to research and write an actual tale about Anna Marie somedayThat fur could be the macguffin in an O. Henry story with a macabre twist, or a Hitchcock tale....
And who knows, that agent who was a junior stenographer when recruited could have become a person of influence (or married one) with a whole network of potential contacts that you don't want known.
I think that the skipper would know that something odd is happening. The British destroyer's approach is just not right and the depth charges were laid in an odd pattern. So even if he is not hearing the Hedgehog hitting the water, he knows that something strange happened.I'm still loving this tale...you are a master of alternate history here
Would the U-Boat skipper even know that he was attacked by something new? IIRC, the hedgehog doesn't explode unless it hits something--not sure if he'd hear them hit the water.
March 27, 1942 south of Penang
The mechanic wiped his brow. He put down the wrench and checked the tension on the Valentine’s suspension. It felt right and the repair went by the field modified book. Lazy Susan was ready. Her gunner and loader were going over the main gun and the co-axial machine gun. The loader and driver was working on the engine, checking the oil and confirming that the head gasket was set right. They had been an intervention and stabilization force when they were needed to crush a Japanese infiltration or supported a local counter-attack before getting pulled back into the rear.
Those battles were always small battles, five tanks there, eight tanks there. The largest single armored fight that the experienced crew had been involved in was only thirteen tanks when they counter-attacked a Japanese attack that was supported by their light tanks. The entire brigade was assembled under nets. Over 100 tanks were in various states of disassembly. Almost all of the tanks were considered to have been combat capable at the start of the week when the stand-down started. All of the tanks would be ready tomorrow when the brigade was due to be paired with an Territorial brigade for a training exercise on breaching a fortified line.
Three miles to the south, the Territorial brigade was sharing curry night with an Indian brigade that had just been pulled back into reserve. Good food and a good night’s rest was the plan before the brigade was due to head to the training assembly area at 0400 the next day.
Huh?Hah!
Man, they are doing good. The frontline is still at Penang while by this time IOTL the whole of SEA is overrun.Three miles to the south, the Territorial brigade was sharing curry night with an Indian brigade that had just been pulled back into reserve.
