Re: RN Landing Platform Dock: Fearless Class
Great photo's lads , thank's for posting them .
I was confused in the first shot I must admit not realising what type of ship she was and was about to remark on her trim in the water , then it dawned on me

This YouTube video shows the demolition of HMS Intrepid at Liverpool. Sad to watch, especially for those who served on her.

Re: RN Landing Platform Dock: Fearless Class
Since I can't find a HMS Intrepid L11 thread here or in the archive....
Does anyone know what month she went into reserve in 1976?
All I can find anywhere is "into reserve 1976".
