emotional withdrawal from Malta
In text HMS Bulwark it says "In 1972 she was headquarters ship for Operation Exit, the withdrawal from Malta, an emotional withdrawal for the Royal Navy. Bulwark lay in Grand Harbor for 11 weeks and flew more than 1,000 missions." - here in this text it is 1971! Which year is it now, 1971 or 1972? 80.151.9.187 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 11:10, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
