Now if you had said this in your Post #36 here ship call signs - Page 4 (merchant-navy.net) i could have made more sense of it!
Cheers

Funny how some things stick , one call sign I remember is I.E.N.G dammed if I can remember the name of the ship?
What Year was the Ship, and was it a British one ?
Just looking ! Could be an Italian Ship you were on then ??
Cheers
Not Italian she may have been one of Arklow shipping Irish flag. I was doing a service job on her engine while she was in port
That callsign is a Italian ships callsign. if you have got the I & E wrong and should read EING then it would be Irish callsign. Rgds Den
