HMS Coventry and STUFT Atlantic Conveyor were sunk. The first by the Argentine Air Force and the latter by Naval Aviation.

My respects for both sides´ casualties.

I saw an 'Atlantic Conveyor' in port here in Halifax a few months ago... it caused me to do a double-take and rush home to google it. Apparently a new one was built after the war.

A lot of ordnance (choppers and the like) went down with the 'Conveyor' which meant our marines had to walk across the island (yomp) :yep:

She was a tough broad in the right place at the right time. Her son didn't get any of the good traits, which leads to be believe that courage is a recessive trait for Brittons.

Her son was once participating in a car rally somewhere in Africa (Somalia or Etheopia IIRC0 when he and his navigator got lost. They eventually turned up at a village called...........'Tit' :rotfl: :rotfl:
