    HMS Kelly. 1/700.

    Hello my Friends.
    This is my latest from White Ensign Models.
    This a resin and etched kit which was produced about 20 years ago.
    Had lots of fun with this.
    All the best.
    Ralph.

    Lovely rendition of Mountbatten's command Ralph. They're showing 'In Which We Serve'' on BBC I-Player, which is based on the the experiences of Mountbatten and the Kelly.

                    Excellent model Ralph.
                    I read Mountbatten's account of Kelly's sinking by the German Luftwaffe. After the ship had sunk, a stoker bobbed up to the surface, looked at Mountbatten and said " Extraordinary how the scum floats to the surface, isn't it?" and promptly swam off!
