I joined the Royal Marines on 3.5.1939 as a Boy Bugler aged 14years 28 days, I was sent to HMS Iron Duke in Dec.1939.The story I wish to tell happened in March, 1940, but had an amazing sequel in Sept.2003 when I returned to Scapa Flow. The first part I wrote in 1985, the sequel in Oct.2003 having found the graves I was looking for. The 2 stories are too long to fit in this restricted space, but I can forward them to an address. I have also written a small book of cameos

Message 1 - Long Stories

Hi Len

No stories are too long for this site, a story can be any length providing that it is divided up into 3,000 word chapters.

If you already have it in a text file on disk, just copy and paste it in, dividing it into 3,000 word sections.
