Sadly we never made port call in Australia. But we did manueuvers with the Ark Royal, and met up with some of her crew in Singapore. Fine lads, though their idea of fun was having a throw-down of fisticuffs in the mens room at Raffles Hotel.<br /><br />What a fine career you've had. I enjoyed the article about the ham radio operator.

I wish the paper would have let you stay and celebrate the half century working. I'm sure you do also. <br /><br />Mr. Blake reminds me of my youth. I think I started making radio transmitters from junk when I was about 14. He sounds like an interesting person.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.com
