What an extraordinary story and ship. All new to me. It’s a pity in 1966 that someone didn’t think to save her.
Superb. You tell it like it was. Really enjoying your substack material.
What a tale!
You mention the Albion. Quite a tragic tale regarding her launch. Maybe something for a future article?
