My Dad served on Naiad, have great memories going aboard her and visiting the senior rates mess and having a look around the ship, i must of been about 8 years old.
I was on HMS Sirius up the Faeroes gap once or twice and lots of the lads did cod war patrols on sister ships. I miss the old smells of Corned dog, diesel and top coat grey paint ! Brilliant ships.
Pleased you approve of my tribute to HMS NAIAD.....you men and boys of the Royal Navy........this is why I have made these videos.........you do not get the credit you deserve..........my little videos go a little way to try and put this right.
In WW2 the crew of HMS Renown were given a hard time by the Icelanders,a choice comment was first Hood and Repulse next you followed by a Nazi salute,4.5" MK6 was far to good for them,15" 42 cal with super charge!
