This is a true-life story of a young manâs life in the Royal Navy during the early 1970s. The book provides insight into what life was like for young men joining Her Majestyâs Forces at that time and of the journeys that followed during a five-year period. The book takes the reader through basic naval training and to far-flung places visited aboard HMS Albion (RO7) âThe Old Grey Ghostâ, a 22,000-ton Centaur-class Light Fleet Carrier, until its decommission. The story relays the difficulties and struggles of one young man and his decision to leave a career after moving to shore bases. The book offers a historical perspective of the Royal Navy from the eyes of a rating and a world much different from today.
