Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Nice video, condenses a complex multi-day operation into 9 minutes fairly well. A fascinating example of combined arms air and sea cooperation, a mix of AA, ASW, Italian MAS boats, carrier task force operations, a heck of a lot going on.
This must be why the Maltese built the break at the Port entrance. Large ships can't get into the Port there.
