HMS Chichester (F59) 1969 - 1971

I served on The Mighty Chi for 2 years and loved every second. She wasn't a modern ship we slept in hammocks, she was quite slow at top speed and due to her diesel engines quite fast at bottom speed. She wasn't one of the senior ships that got all the good visits but we did OK and the crew were the best and happiest I had the pleasure to serve with. If you served on her why not join a few of us in the Facebook group I started for all the type 41 and 61 Frigates Cathedrals and Cats. https://www.facebook.com/groups/634133176698089/

Not sure what the procedure is with this set up but here goes I am trying to pinpoint you in the above photos, and think that you are in the very first photon on the left in the background behind Tommo Thomas and the next one down on the left you are bottom right corner. I will post my e-mail
