@gordonmalcolms3 I was a young 19 year old sailor on HMS Active. My ship, along with others, were given the task of softening up the argies with a salvo of shells onto Mount Tumbledown, just before the main battle. My thoughts and prayers go out to our comrades who didn't make it back

Spotted! An unusual visitor to Brisbane, HMS Tamar. An offshore patrol vessel that’s significantly larger than ours. It’s been in the Indo Pacific since 2021. The crew is going to enjoy some R&R. And maybe a game of @BBL @RoyalNavy
