Great ship great crews.Thanks to all participants of the Falklands War for your service. I remember when it returned for the South Atlantic and stopped at Gibraltar @2.31-2.36 holed and weather beaten,but proud! And yet this country eventually decided to scrap the ship,that's gratitude from a nation that seems to quickly forget the sacrifices made by many .Shameful. Respect and a salute from Gibraltar.

Great tribute sailed home with her from the falklands on hms glamorgan then joined her as my next sea draft
Named after my home city, I had the honour of going aboard when she was displayed alongside at Birkenhead Docks.
I grew up in Plymouth and was 14 when this war took place. What a magnificent warship and crew.
My 1st sea draft as JMEM 2 1980 The ship i grew up on
