	HMS Ganges Association Noticeboard - April 2005
		The Chief who I think was in fact the OOW aboard HMS Shoreham was a disgrace and the side party (one bosuns mate) for the Second Sea Lord did seem to be a rather poor show for such a senior officer.
		The fact that Shoreham was flying a masthead pennant as well as the Vice Admiral's flag must also have had the many ex Ganges signalmen present groaning in their boots but this is a different Navy from the one the majority of us served in.
		The Re-union for 2005 has been planned for the 9th July, at the Royal Naval Club in Birmingham this will be a smallish one but from current interest it looks like there will be a few of you old shipmates there.

		HMS Sheffield, the lead and name ship of the class was the first to succumb to the daring attacks by the Argentinian Air Force, on the Fourth of May 1982.
		However, they will slowly pay off, and HMS Birmingham, who is the most technologically backwards and the oldest is to soon pay off, followed over the next few years by the other Batch 1 ships.
		Except for HMS Iron Duke, all of this class are named after Dukedoms, and although these names have come under some criticism for being 'soft' and uninspiring, they are actually far from soft in terms of historical events and figures of importance.
