FORMIDABLE Arthur Flint’s war against
Tirpitz and the Kamikazes
The remarkable adventures of Arthur Flint (the grandfather of
tonight’s speaker) onboard the aircraft carrier HMS Formidable,
during WWII. Determined to survive, Arthur was harried by
German U-boats and took part in the operations against the
Tirpitz, before travelling to the Far East. With tales of Kamikaze
attacks and the dropping of the atomic bomb, his extraordinary
exploits are sure to enthral our audience.
