Hi,
My name is John. I am an x-Canadian sailor who met a member of the Antrim's crew in 1984 at a bar in Lisbon, Portugal. He was an Electronic Warfare operator, the same trade I was. We exchanged Zippo lighters, from our respected ships at the time, and iI still have mine. I can not remember his name and was wondering if there was any way to find out any information about him. He was in the Falkland Island conflict.

Like the improved website content. Just subscribed to e-newsletter. Keep up the good work. Phil.
My father was in the South African Navy and I met Tom Finney in the early 70’s when the HMS Antrim docked at Simon’s Town, South Africa. Does anyone still have contact with him?

Hello,
Can you tell me if HMS Antrim visited Cagliari, Sardinia in 1974-1975

the harbour, Charybdis, Antrim?, Leander? and I had dinner on the Iranian
frigate IIS Rostam. Thanks.
Mark Hastilow.

Fellas,
Just browsing and reminiscing and came across the site, dunno if you remember me, Kevin Morby AB Gunner, joined from Pompey field gun in 78 and left for civvy street in 79, Remember Dave Leen / John Bowen were all from the same estate here in the Boro [Middlesbrough] other names spring to mind. George O'Donnell , slugger storey boxer. we had a wicked football team with CPTI robson I believe he was also a native of the Boro. I returned just days after you got back from Falklands as Boro were away to Pompey and there was still a few old faces. anyway just thought I'd chip in with some useless info.

Hi,
I was on the Antrim in 75 and we done test firings on the Exocet off Fisgard before our Med Deployment,but I only just joined it before sailing so couldnt say for definite if it was just fitted before sailing,but i dont think it was far off that date.
Also I have a Deployment book in my possesion for Antrim from our 1975 Med Jolly if you are interested in borrowing it and also a few pics of the Silver Jubilee fleet review along with a few more photos of various times on the ship.
Yours Aye,
Nick Nicholson
