No we did not think it was the HMS Onyx –
The Tracker reported seen a periscope on his launch , which sound strange , but of course it could have been whale as you mention – Il give you all details of this launch which happen on may the fifth and from a plane launched from Carrier 25 de Mayo tomorrow – I need to translate them and detail timing and locations –
Question:
Damage of HMS Onyx due to rock in the bottom of ocean flor or military action
Thank You, Regards Enrique

TEEJ Ref # 165
You were correct Sir-
So many things are said , that is why I was asking the question –
I Could never had known from the Radar which was a Harrier or a Sea Harrier , you only have Blimps on the screen –
And this is also something I’ve said to my Argie Fellows and Friends back in my country :
After been in the war , not even what I saw may reflct the total truth of what has really happend –
On May the first on the Vulcan atack I saw on the Radar screen the incoming planes 5 or 6 – I’ve learned through Mr Jonsey , that it was actualy only one vulcan , one Harrier for protection the rest were Countermeasures –

Mr Mike Currill – Mr Jonesby
Belgrano was sank by MK8 Torpedos , why were MK24 (more expensive) used to sink what was left of HMS Sir Gallahand ?
Belgrano was a more difficult target , on movement and with ASW while on the other hand HMS Sir Gallahand was a no risk target –
