My understanding is that there must be a depot in both supply sources and
that either supply source must contain a fleet.  I don't think it matters
which supply source the fleet is in.  Also, I don't believe that having an
ally's fleet in London makes the question irrelevant this turn, because the
Denmark fleet , under Prussian control, cannot provide a supply line for
British reinforcements.

I realize that rule 7.4.3.1 says that the fleet must be in a port which is a
supply source, but the city of Naples is a valid British supply source right
now.  My understanding is that a fleet in Naples would connect Naples and
London for the sake of supply.  But is the same true for reinforcements ?
