Korean War squadrons[edit]

The text says that No. 827 Squadron flew "vintage Seafires" early in the Korean War, seeming to imply that the squadron also flew some Fairey Fireflies. I don't have my references at hand but I believe that's erroneous. The Seafire unit probably was No. 800 while 827 flew Fireflies. Seafires flew in the Fleet Air Arm from 1942 onward, but in 1950 the embarked models were Mk 47s, which had entered service only about two years before.

I served on HMS "Triumph" from commissioning at Hebburn-on-Tyne and on her Mediterranean commission from 1947 until return to the U.K. in May 1949. During our working up trials in 1946 we embarked 24 Royal Marines as escort to a Nazi war criminal extradited from the German legation in Lisbon(Portugal) and brought to Gibraltar for return to the U.K. and thence to Nuremburg. I remember seeing this Nazi onboard and yet have been unable to find any information regarding him.
