Brilliant!
I take it you are now "qualified at typing"?
Thank You Very Much

I'm quick, still with the one finger.
Keith - I hate to tell you this, but you have covered the land war, and the air war, somewhere there must be a gazette on the Naval war!
I have yet to see a copy, but I'm sure it's out there. Well done.
Ron - First an apology to Sir Paul, I did a small typo in the email about the last report it should have read Sir Paul Maltby.
The Gazette article I put on two weeks ago is about Force Z although it doesn't cover all the Naval War in the Far East, it does cover the sinking of the Prince of Wales and the Repulse in detail.

I also have one on the fight back in Burma, it is rather long, I will do that one later. It will go with the Kohima articles and the first big gains against the Japanese by the Allies.
Thanks to all for the kind emails, it makes the sore finger worth it.
