I’m sorry -I don’t see it.
1. Arthur actually had NINE confirmed – plus 2 shared.
2. OK – you could say that there are 9 black stripes on the Starboard side, but I only see 7 on the Port.
3. Where could any further kills (after October 1940) have been registered – not much room left?

PS What is the War Office info?

Helmet sale? Actually Government Property.
Had I wished to keep my ‘bone dome’ in the ’60s, it would have cost me £60.

Just a bit of fun in passing – the only time in MQs in 27 years.
I had 6 (?) lecture huts at Turnhouse converted into TMQ’s in the 1946 shortage of MQ’s.
By chance, I marrried a year later & moved into the first one.
We HAD to accept a barrow load of pre-war partly rusted kitchen wares – including a 20″ fish kettle!!
One wedding present was a plastic washing-up bowl. Another, a pair of previously owned RN sheets.
You’ve never had it so good!!
