| Am I right in that Intrepid was involved in the Aden campaign in the mid 60's the reason I ask is if she did would there be an Aden association re embarked force?

| Rattler,
Fearless handed over to us off Aden in November 67, and
Intrepid did the final three weeks of the withdrawal, not
long enough to get a medal. Found out a few weeks ago
that my step-son's father-in-law was there with 2 Para at
the same time. Small world.
