Re: Historical References HMS Victorious
Found this on my travels through the web. A documentary on the ship shot in 1960. I was 3 at the time so it's understandable that I missed it on the first go round. Probably on past my bedtime.

Re: Historical References
This is awesome Howard. I missed most of this on TV a while back, only managing to record 15 minutes of it . Since then it hasn't been repeated and, despite searching, I've been unable to locate it on the web.
Many thanks for sharing the links

Re: Historical References
My pleasure-really gives a good glimpse of life in the Navy in the '60's and on the Vicky in particular. Found it quite by a happy accident.
