HMS Hecate The Gulf in 1978
Written by Ian. Bailey
one memory that really sticks is when we were on the Hecate in the gulf surveying for the Shah and ending up on the beach . Two of us had to sit on the end of a pier and measure the tide rise and falls. a local girl came down to the beach wearing the full iranian black garb, stripped it all off and underneath was the smallest thong and bikini top , now thats what you call a perk of the job. it definately perked us up.
