Entry Text: | BUSH, Eric Wheler. Bless our Ship. 282p., illus. London: Allen & Unwin, 1958.
Captain Bush's autobiography, one-third of which describes his career in WWII. He was with minesweepers at Dunkirk, helped guard the Channel, took command of the new cruiser Euryalus which served in the Mediterranean, then assisted in the staff work for D-Day. Finally he temporarily recommissioned Malaya for bombardment duties before serving in SEAC until the end of the war. A delightful book. |
