Falklands Islands

After joining the Royal Navy in 1985, my first ‘Sea Daddy’ was a guy who was onboard HMS Sheffield was she was hit in the Falklands, he showed me a box that he had…in it was a key! All he recalled was that he was on his way to open the ships office at the time the ship was hit.Next thing was he was outboard of the ship and scrambling up the side onehanded never opening his fist. He kept that key as a keepsake. Long live ‘Smudge the killick’ and his great tuition and guidance…
