Savegame

@crockett36 Yes. I do not know why I didn’t think of that to begin with. I put my surviving bomber back and we are ready to proceed forward. I don’t even drink so I can’t explain why except exhaustion. It’s been bitterly cold here and UPS has been running us hard.

@simon33 Yes, good and easy plan!
