Slight thread drift but when visiting Alderney as a kid in the early fifties I was told by a local that the Germs used to throw the bodies of dead prisoners off a certain cliff and that after the war a fisherman hauled out a massive octopus at that point. Truth or just bar talk?
One thing for sure was that by the harbour there were still German letters/numbers visible on certain storage doors and on the harbour bottom were the remains of an E Boat with huge holes as a result of an attack by rocket firing Mosquitoes/Typhoons/Beaufighters?
Back to thread......
