[BITList] Captain Fryatt

[David Harvey]

If you don't know the story of Captain Fryatt it is worth reading it upt. I
note yor article says he attempted to ram the U-boat, but it is pretty
certain he succeeded, and then the Germans shot him for committing a war
crime. His ship captured and anchored at the entrance to Zeebrugge later
proved to be a bit of a hazard for the raid on the port. It beats me why
there was still a cross channel ferry running to Holland at that stage of
the war.
