Visserhaven

We are going through the naval chapter which follows RNN De Ruyter as she fights a ship to shore action in the small port Visserhaven. Things are coming along fine, it's well put together and...kind of meh. Maybe we've just written too many of these swabbies open up the gun locker and pass out the helmets scenes. How do we jazz it up, then? Do we even need to jazz it up?
