Ralph.
How interesting. I am about old enough to remember, before the last war, what we called, in this country, "Navy days". The Royal Navy dockyard at Chatham, in Kent, was open to the public for a week.My father, who served in the RN in the first war, would explain in detail, the workings of the various ships. Some you could not go aboard because they had "secrets" which I now realise was probably Radar. Keep the stories coming. All the best. Jonathan.
