...and it's high time to move this entire episode to an AU-thread!
I agree, and I am very nearly ready to post a comprehensive "Grays Harbor Royal Navy" thread there. Just got a few details I want to finish working out first. I've got 9 years of building, rebuilding, tweaking, redoing and re-tweaking this nation, so theres a whole lot to try and compile and collate.
Just be thankful I'm only posting the navy here and leaving off the army, air force, stamps, coins, paper currency, flags, railroads, airlines and industry.
