Obsolete, out-classed, out-dated, over-matched; but somehow still beautiful and utilitarian. Brave warriors at the helm.

Nice historical image. My father has been fighting in Narvik against German troops.

Very good image of Glorious. She had brought on board a squadron of Gladiators during the evacuation of Norway in June 1940. She also had on board a couple of Hurricanes which, through incredible pilot skill, were able to land on the carrier. On her way back to Britain the Courageous, and her two escorting destroyers Acasta and Ardent, were intercepted and sunk by the German battle cruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau.
