WARSHIP QUIZ

One of my favourite quotes (and two possible times it was said -- I have read both)
a) ADM Bertram Ramsay during the Dunkirk Evacuation
b) ADM Cunningham during the Crete Evacuation

Either way, the Royal Navy was enjoying its traditional passtime of getting the British Army out of a "bit of a spot"
