The only reason the three Fisheries vessels were protected in the cuts were because we don't own them!!!

Spent a few years in the RNR at HMS Eaglet and the ship attached was the previous HMS Mersey a ton class minesweeper. Made of wood her draught was just a few feet of water so she would toss and turn on a millpond! Her real name was HMS Pollington (pennant No M1173) but used the name Mersey when attached to the Mersey Division RNR. Happy Days Dave.  |
