Thanks bagre. I understood what you were saying but had to check. Regards friend. Ken.:cheers2:

Yes, I think it was Avon. Enrique, in the RN we had our main role/job but there we also had additional qualifications. One of mine was diver.

I need help with this one. can anyone translate again?

RAF Wessex bringing stores to Cardiff. Ascension Island. A very young Griffiths911. The Bristol group nearing the Total Exclusion Zone (TEZ). Our turn to take fuel from the tanker RFA Olna. HMS Avenger. HMS Andromeda. We did not know at the time that her Seawolf...

Yes we were aware of it and stayed clear! I found a web site a few years ago that showed a letter written by Lt. Tinkler's mother addressed to the officer who made the exocet trailer combination work. In it she forgave him for killing her son. It was very moving.

What is on your mind friend?

Gabotdf, I think we did NGS when on radar ambush. This is why I combined the two.

Enrique, When I look at Cardiff's ROP I am surprised that we were only officially tasked with Naval Gunfire Support (NGS) on two occasions (6 & 8 June), however, I remember we fired our 4.5" gun more times than that. Cardiff was tasked with radar ambush missions often. We would leave the...

It is a SLR but with a 30 round Bren Gun magazine. In cardiff we had our SLR rifles adjusted to fire fully automatic and would put as many sailors on the upper deck as we could spare when action stations was sounded. Here is a picture taken from HMS Hermes at night. It shows HMS Cardiff...

Jimmy, I thought you would feel like that. It is complicated I know and keeping a balance is important. That one picture that you posted on the SAMA82 is a favourite of mine. It shows very young soldiers who have been fighting hard carrying a fallen comrade. You have posted pictures of...

Never even got into the water! When I got back to Cardiff I had to go back on radar watch without sleep. Ni siquiera entró en el agua! Cuando llegué de vuelta a Cardiff, tuve que volver en el radar de vigilancia sin dormir. ---------- Post added at 21:39 ---------- Previous post was at...

Gentlemen. Always remember to keep a healthy sense of humour. Goodnight. ---- Caballeros. Recuerden siempre mantener un buen sentido del humor. Buenas noches.

I was a ship's diver (amateur) on Cardiff. We were tasked to find munitions that had been reportedly thrown into Puerto Argentino Harbour. We arrived in a Gemini inflatable and our diving officer Lt. Waters (yes Waters - RIP) asked the army guys what we had to do. Absolutely not one person had any...

Jimmy would feel I've insulted him by posting this. I just think it needs to be posted. Jimmy podria sentirse insultado por este post. Sólo pienso que debe ser publicado. Enough. I'm going to be quiet for a while. ---- Suficiente. Voy a descansar un rato

08:00 AM Buenos Aries - 12:00 PM London. Thank you all for the information about Commodore Pastran.

The date of his death needs to be recorded here if there are discussions about this Officer. Simple respect. Argentine friends, help please?
