I showed the site to a guy at work who was at sea for a time. He was asking if there were any details of HMS Plymouth on the site but we couldn't find any.
So I am sure there will be someone out there who has a piccy or some story about the ship. I only came across her in 1970 when she was on the Rhodesia blockade. I was on the Border Reiver at the time. Apparently a few months before I joined the Border Reiver, HMS Plymouth had taken someone off who was in a bad way. I don't have any more details....here's throwing it open Best Wishes steve Mills |

Hi Steve,
I don't know if there were more than one HMS Plymouth so I presume you mean the one that served in the Falklands. There is one picture in the SN Gallery at : http://www.shipsnostalgia.com/galler...cat/all/page/1 You can also find some information here: http://www.historicwarships.org/displaypage.asp?page=5 Here is a colleagues and comrades site you might want to check out: http://www.comradesandcolleagues.com...S_PLYMOUTH.asp If you do a Google search using "HMS Plymouth" you will get literally hundreds of hits which should keep you amused for the next month or so. Regards, Brian |

hi Benjydog.
thanks for this info. I am actually with the guy, Paul Venables, who was on the Plymouth (F126) in 1976. he was radio/ electrical engineer at the time. Sad git he is now in the Fire Service with me! (still sitting on his back-side doing nothing...his words not mine) I am sure he will use the website links you have sent but if anyone else has any contributions..... feel free. All the best Steve Mills |
