Uncle actually IIRC. Had two ships sunk out from underneath him, and ended up as maybe the best British General Officer in WWII for his work as CIC in SE Asia. Which is a pretty neat accomplishment for a Naval Officer from Germany.

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
