For a complete list of these 500 detailed Allied warship histories see this page.In 2024, we will, of course, continue with adding more of these Allied warship histories to the database. Besides that revisions of the current Allied warship histories will also take place. For instance at this moment work is ongoing on British and other Allied Navies submarines that had been operating in the Mediterranean. The pages of several of the British T-class submarines have recently been revised.
To aid in our research a total of four weeks of research at the National Archives in London will be undertaken in the first half of 2024. Main focus will be on photographing convoy files. Besides that in 2023 some documents have also been ordered from the Canadian and New Zealand Archives and some more will be ordered in 2024.
