The helmsman, was he texting or watching porn? :haha:

Gravdigr 11-08-2017 01:00 PM

If he's the one who spun that big fucker around, I'd he was on the job.

It prolly slewed around on its own, though.

Ya think he was hooning? :haha:

Damn newfangled driverless container ships. Next thing you know, they will let cars have no drivers!

Ran over the buoy and everything....

Well, that left a mark...

Correction, it was a Mitsubishi Ki-51 "Sonia" that hit the HMS Sussex.

Looks like one of my landings but at least I was able to use the aircraft again. :blush:

Aboard cruiser HMS Sussex (1945)

This recollection is from:

George Coyne of Lightwater, Surrey.

In 1945 I was serving in cruiser HMS Sussex. My ship was part of a task force (Operation Livery) in action at Phuket Island in what is now Thailand.
The Japs attacked us with suicide planes, one of which hit us and another struck and sank HMS Vestal.
She was a minesweeper and was Camberley's adopted warship.
She was the last British warship to be sunk during WW2.
There's some rather onerous conditions attached to reproducing the full text, hence the somewhat brief extract above.

WW2 People's War for the full article.
