The Falklands – HMS Coventry's bombing – the fleet under attack



Here we recount the bombing and capsize of HMS Coventry. As well as the pounding many of the other ships of the Royal Navy took as British amphibious forces landed during the Falklands War.

As with the video on HMS Sheffield’s sinking here we look at the account of the task group’s commander, Admiral Sandy Woodward in his memoir ‘100 days’.

PS – please excuse the random edit in the middle!

So here’s Sheffield’s video:
