I am not sure if this would work with the timeline. We were under the direct control of HMS Coventry and HMS Broadsword at the time so I think it unlikely they would have launched a missile into the middle of our combat!
The next day we were vectored against the attack that eventually sunk the Coventry and were very firmly hauled off and ordered to turn away when they thought they were "Birds Affirm!"
Absolutely ghastly feeling when the raid got through. I felt sick to the core.
I wonder what Nelson would have done under the circumstances?
