De lo que preguntó Enrique, misiones de apoyo de fuego naval del HMS Cardiff.

 

[Griffiths911]

Gabotdf,

I think we did NGS when on radar ambush. This is why I combined the two.

Hot chicks and cold beer. :yonofui:
Now seriusly, I was thinking about your ship dealing several tasks, NGS, C130 and exocets?
Were you aware of the ITB (Instalación de Tiro Berreta, the improvised exocet launcher)
I'll post some photos later.

Ahora en serio, pensaba en tu barco lidiando con múltiples tareas, bombadeo a posiciones terrestres, derribar los C130 ¿y exocets?¿Estaban al tanto de la ITB?
Postearé fotos luego

Debe ser una mezcla de asombro y simpatia al igual que cuando vieron el tractor con las coheteras de Pucará encima a modo de lanzachoetes multiple movil y otra fija en un gallinero.

Una criollada !!!

Typical argentine thing.
PD: not so sure about translation accuracy. Kind of slang and my lack of english: bad mixture :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Yes we were aware of it and stayed clear!

I found a web site a few years ago that showed a letter written by Lt. Tinkler's mother addressed to the officer who made the exocet trailer combination work. In it she forgave him for killing her son. It was very moving.

perdone mi ingles aprendi en la escuela publica en buenos aires en los 60's, escuchando a los beatles, los stones y otro monton de pelilargos y jugando con matchbox y scalextrics.
lea cuidadosamente.
bagre= una clase de pez gato usual en los rios y mares argentos
uw= sub marino, sous marine, sotto il mare...
trajesco= tortura usual en los buzos cuando lo emplean
mi pregunta es si fuiste buzo de salvamento a bordo? o marinero en un equipo de control de daños? porque aqui normalmente en los buques ara nos llamaban turistas y nos ponian en un radar o la cocina, simple...

Bagre states :

Both You and Bagre must be of the same age , just by looking at the photos -
He thinks you must have been in the Radar plus in the Damage Control Team at HMS CArdffs
In those years Bagre been also a diver used the brand "Avon" as Divers Suit , was that the brand used by you back then ?

Regards Bagre

Yes, I think it was Avon.

Enrique, in the RN we had our main role/job but there we also had additional qualifications. One of mine was diver.
