HMS Cardiff 2009, scrap site Turkey 2009.

Thanks for your encouragement. Turkey was 'different' we had a lovely holiday.

Annoyed I sent the items of uniform to Argentina two weeks ago by Royal Mail. They have not got there yet and I have a feeling they will never get there. I am so upset and annoyed.

GC82 Islas Malvinas I have sent the items of uniform to Argentina today. It makes me feel happy.:hurray: I am going on vacation to Turkey tomorrow...hot sun, cold beer yeeehaa.

It is Invincible. It was taken on the day Illustrious took over command. I have served in both ships; Invincible being the best!

Jualbo Let me think about this for a while. You have turned my world upside down.:cheers2:

Navaleye 10/10!:hurray: Now be serious about the crane from this angle.:svengo:

I'm sorry; I meant to say that the threat was assessed as w/sw. Jualbo, I see your point but I can only tell you what I experienced on that day. We did see the raid on radar and our gun crews opened fire on something on the horizon. But I now see how illogical that seems when you look at your...

This is very interesting. The positions of the ships from Invincible are familiar to me, I may be looking at it with a radar operator’s eye combined with logic rather than memory. Cardiff is too close to Exeter and oriented wrongly to cover the threat axis that was assessed as W/SW. But I...

Taken by a crewman in HMS Bristol June 1982. Invincible or Illustrious? Traducción: Tomada por un tripulante del HMS Bristol en Junio de 1982. Invincible o Illustrious?

Many years later.

I think it was you who made me think of this irony? And yes, we would have detected the formation, simply because of the height. Is it possible that these guys did not know that they were being illuminated by a 909 fire control radar? Traducción: Creo que fue usted quien me hizo pensar en...

I am in touch with a crewman who was in Penelope at the time of this incident. They (Penelope) are convinced that an Israeli missile was fired at them by on of the Mirage fighters and what is even more bizarre they think it was a ‘Gabriel’. I am convinced that the crew of Penelope saw something...

They are ready to go. I want to write a letter to go with the items, you may not understand but I so desperately want to part with them but am finding it hard to do so. I would like to send them on my birthday (4 de mayo). Traducción: Están listos para ir. Quiero escribir una carta para...

It could be said that she operated very successfully within the 12nm limit. Detected but not attacked with any success and certainly deterred the Argentine fleet (overall) from venturing out to attack British surface combatants. Traducción: Se puede decir que operó con mucho éxito dentro del...

You are with your men. Rest peacefully Captain Bonzo. ---- Usted está con sus hombres. Capitán Bonzo descanse en paz

Usted es bienvenido amigo.

Not my picture. GC82 Islas Malvinas 1983. HMS Exeter going home. Helicopters from Cardiff, Exeter and Yarmouth. Something to celebrate. Commandos?

Mick, I agree. Could you imagine senior officers contributing to this forum? Twenty-seven years ago we had a fight with these guys. Why today is there such distance between us? ---------- Post added at 17:05 ---------- Previous post was at 16:54 ---------- It is in the same area...

And didn't this mindset cost us. I've read Woodward's book. Sacrifice this and sacrifice that. He had a load on his mind but he is the type of officer I detest. Sorry, this does not help the discussion.

I think it was at this time we took you guys seriously. It is my conviction that the British did not understand how much you love the islands. It seems crazy to me that this ageing MPA spent three hours plus plotting our positions and was not attacked by shars. I had read somewhere that the...

My ship was not in the TEZ on this day. I am determined to tell you only about my experiences. Sorry. Ken.

Can you show me the post you refer to... 'Quote'. Thanks.

Me interesa. ¿Qué misión fue esto?
