Drach, thanks for the clarification on my Admiral Chatfield question. I now understand that I should read "Navy" as "battle fleet". According to the article the quote was him testifying in an effort to keep control of the air arm. On paper it reads like "take the subs just leave me the planes" if you don't understand the context! I also gather from hints and the tone of your answer that Admiral Chatfield was "too plausible by half" (apologies to Jane Austen).

I can probably look into it for Patrons if people want it :)

Might give that a shot. Don’t wanna give YouTube my money

Not sure if it just me but if I use chrome to access patreon I can play the video and then run chrome in the background.

Youtube Premium allows you to lock your phone and the audio will continue to play in the background. It will also only stream the audio, saving you data

Actually on reflection the coal bin arrangement per side would be L/C/L/L/C/L. Remember in normal operations the German Navy WOULD NOT be using the expensive coked fuel. So the ship would simply being topped off w lignite. Sure you'd burn the coke in small amounts continually... BUT it;s an additive German industry COULD have provided. German WW1 total steel production required enormous coking capacity. Coke as a fleet additive could be handled.

"4k YouTube to MP3" is a free program that will automatically convert and download YouTube videos to MP3s, that's that I use for these.

I have another patreonage which uses Podbean. Not the best platform, but it must be cheap/free to post.

Any chance you could release these as audio only so I could play them in the background?
