Finally able to read it all, lunchtime consumption. lol.

I'm struck by the fact that the country didn't seem to panic. I would think if the ships off the coast were being sunk word of mouth alone would travel through the country that the Germans were attacking and military action would have come sooner than it did.

What am I missing?

Different times than today.

The press didn't harp on it nor cover it live in 24 hours a day for one.
