FB,
Without checking, I believe there were 5 flat tops off Aden. They included the Commando carriers and of course fixed-wing top cover. It was in anticipation of a debacle such as Saigon 6 years later but it all went pretty smoothly.
The troops were able to pour quick setting cement down the toilets and fill those globe lamp shades with water, having smashed the bulbs first. allegedly
Many Thanks Sir,
I knew there had to be a logical explanation, I know the Hunters from Khormaksar carried out regular offensive air support over the Radfan Mountains against insurgents, but I didn't know the Navy flew in anger against anyone after the R.A.F, inevitably, had to up sticks and leave.
