JUDE STACKPOLE (1334-1990) has gone on Eternal Patrol, the victim of a reckless driver who raced through a red light and killed JUDE on his motorcycle, but we still have a lot of his work in file and we bring some of it to you here. He writes: “One wonders what else might be floating around that was supposed to have been scrapped years & years ago i.e. - according to many historians, all the wrecks of the German High Seas Fleet scuttled at Scapa Flow in 1919 were raised and scrapped between 1920 and 1962. Patently untrue as it turns out, and 3 of the ships of the KöNIG Class - the KöNIG, MARKGRAF & KRONPRINZ WILHELM are still where they settled back in 1919.” HARRY’S NOTE - Former Member MASON LOGIE (206-1986) used to lead SCUBA trips to Scapa Flow to dive these ships JUDE continues: “As I wrote you the last time, the more I read of ‘how it really happened’ the more convinced I become that the ‘facts’ are being adjusted and altered to fit the scenario we are supposed to believe.” My goodness - could JUDE mean that the news is managed????
