Review of the Fleet Map from 1977

Thirty five years ago today it was the naval review of the fleet by the Queen to commemorate her then silver jubilee. The fleet were stationed out in the Solent with dozens and dozens of craft on display. This amazing map was on sale the other day on Albert Road and showed exactly which ship was where during the review.

    Admiring the time and energy you put into your website
    and in depth information you offer. It’s good to come across a
    blog every once in a while that isn’t the same outdated rehashed material.
    Fantastic read! I’ve bookmarked your site and
    I’m including your RSS feeds to my Google account.

    Does anyone have one of these Fleet Review 1977 anchorage charts for sale? I was in HMS SUPERB, the lead submarine, as an 18 year old and never bothered to get a copy. I would like one, if one is available. Thank you
