A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU

A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU.

H.M.S.ULYSSES

H.M.S.  ULYSSES

H.M.S. ULYSSES,

A book by Allistair MacLean…

Made that fiction author’s

Subsequent writing fame.

He based it on experience

He had in World War Two…

In the Royal Navy

Upon the ocean blue.

After THE GUNS OF NAVARONE,

ICE STATION ZEBRA and the like…

I had to read his very first yarn

My interest had spiked.

Although the man is probably gone

His works remain…

So many characters he made up,

I’ll never be the same!
