I was on hms eagle from 1970 to her end in 1972, I served as a electronic warfare operator, and to this day she was the greatest ship to serve on, why they scrapped her and not the Ark is one of the world's mysteries
great video...music was a good way to make the work move quicker and beer and spirits on board? not the usn way which was too bad...i will share with grandson who plays tuba in a us army band...he'd been to iraq - thanks again !

My dad served on HMS Eagle on or about this time .
My dad took me and my brother to see HMS Eagle when it visited NZ.. I been interested ever since.. cheers from down under 👍🇳🇿
i was there from 67-69 flying phantoms etc.
in 1958 I visited Eagle at Istanbul...my first tea with milk...now it's my favorite :)
Excellent footage, thoroughly enjoyed it!
Being in the band...what a skive
Had to download the video so that I can run the clip slowly, just in case I get to spot my dad.
