I heard there was a lot of Aluminum used in the construction of the superstructure on that ship. I never heard the Falklands thing before the QE2 was used I think.
There was...it was designed to be fire retardant. It didn’t have the sumptuous interiors that British liners had, very functional...but it was fast.
The Falklands claim is bogus. This boat was laid up before the Falklands War.
Not true. The QE 2 was used as a transport. As it was, the US took great pains not to appear to be aiding Britain during the Falklands war. All our help was covert and backdoor stuff, especially satellite and communications intel.
