Brilliant song - must learn this one - my late father was a Merchant Navy Navigating Officer and this strikes a chord for me!

[@jonnybee48]

Good sod's opera there - very enjoyable. F15 - HMS Euryalus - my final draft as killick of outside machinery from '70 - 72. Great ship, a brilliant crowd of lads and some very fond memories.

[@barrygallagher7488]

Barry Gallagher - My final draft as well - Killick REM - same dates - before discharge - great to end your time with a last trip out to the FEZ

[@smokeyfruitbat]

I was engine room killick 74-77

[@jackdenboer7602]

Beautiful version, for sure.

[@lionelrcullen]

Good one. Very entertaining. Lionel.

The Leander pictured is HMS Euryalus (F15) post Ikara conversion. I love the colour saturated pics - a lightning rod back to runs ashore and banyans that meant, and mean, so much to us Jacks.

[@smokeyfruitbat]

Yeah beautiful ship, great crew spent 3 years on her 74-77

[@tee2899]

I remember Cdr. John Lock he was the XO on Hermes

As an ex- Guzz rate myself, I like this vid, especially since Shep himself was a full-time Pompey Scrote (he said that!) Old times, lovely song.

Oi Jack! There's no chance of another carrier coming around Drake island and coming berthing up to Rubble Jetty. Unfortunately. great song, great pictures, love the fact it's Guz.

Haha drake gate brings back memories. Trapped a bird one night who lived opposite the gate. Couldn't use it for about 6 months as every time I did she would spot me and run out 😂
