    Default MV Alvega

    Posted on behalf of Ivor

    During the Falklands Campaign (Op Corporate) I served as a MoD(N) civilian aboard MV Alvega (STUFT). I joined the ship in Pompey Dockyard and sailed on her to Ascension Island. Are there people out there from that time? What happened to the ship? Thank You
