Minesweeping/Minehunting is a dangerous business for Ships Crews even in so called peacetime operations, a trip up to the Baltic was an interesting time, remote Sweeping has been going on in the RN for some time now, the Americans tried sweeping with Sled towed by a Helicopter, we tried towing a "Ton" Class with a Helicopter over 60 years ago!!! Very Brave Helicopter Crews
My R.N. Handbook is in the the Loft somewhere but the Signal should read "Thanks Newcastle for a great run ashore" which was well known by RN Crews.Statistics: Posted by Hornbeam — Sat May 21, 2022 9:45 am
