Aye, the British lads ...had such Good Hope that their Resolution
would see them through; but in the end, when the Irresistable force
met the immovable object, their Valiant efforts would see them
through to a brilliant Triumph, and yet it was not to be, for the
Implacable will of Letters and his band of battlecruiser barons
broke down the enemy's Defence - indeed, on that day they gained
their fame, they covered themselves with Glory as the Baron led
them to a Magnificent result, felling the British Goliath
and winning a victory that Caesar and Hannibal could only
have dreamt about.
Albion swore Vengeance and sought out the German again,
but could not find him. They searched high and low, from Hindustan
to Zealandia to Hibernia to Africa to every end of
the Commonwealth and in the cities of each Dominion, even
through the streets of London, but he had vanished as surely as
if he had gone to Mars or Jupiter.
He is a Formidable opponent, this German Warrior, who has
so weakened the Bulwark that shields Britannia. Some swear
him to be a Black Prince, while others acclaim him the equal of
Lord Nelson. But that great man cannot sleep, nor Drake,
nor any other, while the Baron roams abroad.
Part III by Nikademus
We must do what we must... To counter the Renown and Audacious
Admiral Letters. Come to me, ye Britons, we must band together and Dread
nought this man and his navy. Rest assured we will Repulse
him should he dare venture out again to touch the sacred soil blessed
by St Vincent
Like Bellerophon, with the fearceness of Orion, we will
master the devil from across the waters and personally send him to visit
Neptune in his watery Gin Palace under the Ocean
Are we not men of Iron? Let not one person, be they King,
Baron, Duke, or a man named George, shirk his sacred duty
in this time of War, lest they suffer the spite of the nation.
Rest assured, we will have Revenge Most probably on the V
of May. Why? well just cause......
Part IV by Theodore
So it's to send Letters off... ...to Valhalla that you wish? Valorous though the Britons may be, you must know that there is no Marksman in your land who can compare with the Baron's Swift shooting. He wields Scimitar and Scythe and Spear; what a Sharpshooter is he! The Britons are Steadfast, but the Baron is a Whirlwind. Pounds Sterling are spent in vain, for he is both Sharpshooter and Tactician without equal, and in the end the Tumult of battle shall Swallow every last hull.

Dead Letters Office
Yes, like Molkte, stubborn.
like Seydlitz dashing and cunning.
Not since Goeben have we seen his likes. Boy i von-der what
he'll do next? Probably Tann some more British hides to put up
on his wall no doubt.
Maybe Hindenburg can keep him down but I doubt it. He's Der
man after all. If Hindenburg so much as lifts a flinger
at him you can bet he'll go running to the Kaiser who will Lut-zown
on the crotchety old General and tell him kiss his Grosser Kurfurst.
Further Defense!

I think that I shall never see
A plant as lovely as a limerick tree.
It blooms all year long
From here to Haiphong
And the fruits that it grows are free, are free!
I think that I shall never eat
A fruit as lovely as a limerick-tree sweet.
Its flesh is oh so tender
Especially in the month of September
Truly, tis a wonderful treat, a treat!
I think that I shall never inhale
A fragrance as lovely as a limerick-tree vale.
In the hollow it hovers
While the senses, it covers
Lifting all into bliss without fail, without fail!
I think that I shall never hear
A sound as lovely as when a limerick's near.
They provide much good humor
(Never mind contrary rumor)
So enjoy, and have no fear, no fear!
:-)))
