Just heard on news out here that a team have found the final resting place for the third Ark Royal that was torpedoed and sunk during WW2.
She’s down 3000 feet about 30 miles from Gibralter. As she’s not a war grave (as far as I know, all but one of her crew where rescued…did’nt even get their feet wet !) I would love to see pictures similar to those taken when the Titanic was discovered.
any thoughts ?
Cheers

Unfortunately I walked in the room just as the report was finishing (it’s on a British Forces Broadcasting Service program) but I think I heard something about a media oriented team. Not Dr R Ballard and his crew who found the Bismark, titanic…etc etc.
I would imagine that this will be repeated on the various news channels later on so will keep an eye for further info.

PS: probably do a search on the web and find out later on today.
