The Polish destroyers were both built at East Cowes. Błyskawica was in the harbour for maintenance when the Germans bombed the town, but the ship fought back all through the night, saving the town. She is now a floating museum in Poland where you can visit her.
I've had two lovely holidays on the Isle of Wight and would love to visit again. Really enjoyed this and learnt a lot.
So glad to hear it! Thank you!
Great video! Very interesting 😊 Thank you for sharing!

Wow! Fantastic!
It's nice to be Wight
Apparently Kier Starmer will be turning the IOW into the new Alcatraz in 2025
