Description
Colin Fitzsimmons had at least of couple of relationships in the late war and post-war years. One of his girlfriends was a Royal Navy MGB known by her hull number - "1070". Because the enemy was so much closer to their homeland, RN warships were a lot more wary of giving out personal information, including given names if they could possibly help it. In the quasi-tribal culture they came out of, real names were for family and very close friends. So Colin didn't get to know 1070's birth name until they'd been an item for a while.

Skip ahead about 78 years -- The surviving Schnellboots dispersed to other places after carside WW2, much like their Allied counterparts. Four generations later, Romy and her brother Stefan may well be endlings in their purebred line, unless they find others to breed with. Aside from that, they are pretty typical 21st-century kids, into music, anime and video games and hanging out with their friends. Yes, Romy is really into LoZ, how can you tell? Don't call them E-boats, by the way - the British forces called them that, "E" standing for "Enemy". That's part of the baggage they'd rather leave behind.
