The 44 days had a stop in them. We lost her off Motril on 6 Sep heading east, and heard her again on 29 Sep heading west, about 9 nm from the same spot. hullcipher.com/vessel/9349291

#OTD Fought on Oct 9, 1708, the Battle of Lesnaya was a major Russian victory. Peter the Great intercepted Lewenhaupt’s Swedish column, which was bringing vital supplies to Charles XII. The Swedes lost half their men and most supplies,ruining their invasion and providing Russia a huge boost #history

#OTD On Oct 9, 1934, the Marseille assassination shattered Versailles collective security and France's anti-German alliances.Barthou’s accidental death by French police advanced the career of future Vichy Prime Minister Pierre Laval, leaving Central Europe vulnerable to German expansionism #history
