Thank you today for Yugoslav monitor Sava, introduced (in 2015): "Another in my series of Austro-Hungarian/Yugoslav river monitors. As the Austro-Hungarian Temes-class monitor Bodrog, she fired the first shots of World War I. She then went on to serve in three more navies under the name Sava, being scuttled and raised twice. She still exists, although she has been reduced from her former glory and is now an ammunition barge!" -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:13, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
