Hi Jim, i was on both Victorious and then (due to fire) was temp drafted to (Centaur?) followed by a draft to "Happy H". The fire was, allegedly, caused by an unknown serving crew member (arsonist?) At the time, although a stoker,on joining the Hermes, I was given a blue card job as one of the senior rates mess-men. It was with great sadness that my boss (a CPO) was trapped in his mess and died as a direct result of that fire. R.I.P You may remember that the fire was started on a friday night / saturday morning and most of the crew were on w/end leave....there is an awful lot more i could add...but not on a forum
