  1. Bloody good effort on both sides, trying to work out a solution that could work while both being bombarded by frankly silly orders from their respective senior commands.

  2. Does sound like she did a damn fine job. Though I do like the idea of her rocking up somewhere to request something and someone staring down their nose at her and saying "And you are Madam?" to which she could answer "Admiral Cunningham's wife". In the Med in 1940 that's a win the game card 🙂.

  3.  @SennaAugustus  Ah, the Fairey Swordfish, or Stringbag, as she was commonly known. HMS Warspite launched her float equipped one at Narvik for reconnaissance and spotting purposes. Not wishing to be left out of the general mayhem the Royal Navy was dishing out she dive bombed and sank U-64 before getting on with her assigned job. An open cockpit, bi-plane, sea-plane, dive bombing in WWII. Don't mess with the Fleet Air Arm, they will use what they've got to ruin your day.
