Entry Text: | GUERNSEY, H. C. A Naval Career. 478p. Ilfracombe: Stockwell, 1992. ISBN: 072232586X.
The author served in the RN from 1914–1947. In 1939 he was on Nelson as staff intelligence officer, a role which gave him a wide perspective reflected in the text. He served on the Home Fleet flagship until 1943 and there are very full accounts of the Norwegian Campaign and the Bismarck chase, before going to SEAC. Although a little irritatingly written in the third person, this is an interesting account from a well-placed and well-connected career officer. |
