HMS Courageous
Although HMS Courageous
had no part in Malta during WWII I am mentioning her here as I have some pre
WWII photos of her in the Mediterranean.
These photographs have probably not been 'aired' in public before.
HMS Courageous was the first British warship
to be sunk in WWII whilst serving with the home fleet on anti submarine operations
off the coast of Ireland.
