HMS Templar 1948596 viewsIn the background is the wreck of the ammunition ship Talabot. "Lieutenant O'Driscoll was the Officer-in-Charge of the Fleet Clearance Diving Team which was engaged in clearing a large number of unexploded bombs from the wreck of the SS Talabot in Grand Harbour, Malta. The SS Talabot had been bombed and set on fire on 26th March 1942 and because of her dangerous cargo was scuttled. From 16th October to 11th December 1972 the Fleet Clearance Diving Team recovered 73 bombs with a combined weight of 19,500 Ibs. All the bombs were fuzed and heavy corrosion had made them stick together. Many of the bombs were buried in the mud and had to be cleared by water jetting which meant that the divers had to work entirely by touch, visibility being nil." 1 commentsPrefect	Lightning at Luqa432 viewsJust visiting.Prefect	HMS Thermopylae 1964389 viewsPrefect	The Social Life of a Wren 1962441 viewsPrefect
