The Seventh ship to bear the name, the Assault Ship and Commando Carrier
HMS Fearless was first commissioned in 1965. Over the next 37 years she
was seldom far from the actions in which British forces were engaged
worldwide, be they in Aden, Malaysia and Borneo, Northern Ireland, the
Cold War (Norway), South Rhodesia, Falklands, the Gulf, Afghanistan and
so on. Thousands of sailors, Royal Marines and soldiers served on board
over her 19 commissions. Now paid off, Fearless has a great story to
tell and the Author, a former senior Royal Marine who knows her well, is
superbly qualified to tell it.
