| Allie Fox mailto:madgirlallie@hotmail.co.uk Hi Just wanted to leave a note. I was very emotional reading viewing your site. I went aboard the Ardent prior to her going to the Falklands. As a navy kid and as one of my dads close friends JC Evans was a crewmate I was lucky to share my time with the familys on this day. As a young 14 year old I got chatting to a young steward called Shaun who was allowed into the PO's mess with us as I think he was keeping me company and keeping me out of trouble while the adults drank. We chatted about football and music and I managed to pursuade them to let me play his Human League tape in there which was much better than the rubbish they were playing :) Hearing the news that the Ardent had been hit was terrible, waiting for news that JC was safe was a nightmare but luckily the news was good. Reading the news though I realised Shaun had not been so lucky and had died a hero trying to save a crewmate on the flight deck. Although I was very young I never forgot this lovely sheffield lad who saved me from the boredom of the oldies on that day and my thought still go out to his family on their loss and regret that although he had taken my address I was never to be given the chance to get to know him better. I was there in Southampton to watch the heroes come home and among all of the families being reunited I was saddened that Shaun's family did not get the chance to welcome him home. He was so young and if in a small way by posting this little message pays him some respect and thanks as to all of his fallen crewmates. JC did survive but would relive the moments of that day right up to his death from cancer a considerable time later. As for me, I was lucky enough to still have my mateloe Dad come home after the conflict and at 41 myself I am happy to say I still do but I do so feel for all of the children that did not. A great site.. noone will ever be forgotton!! Alison Fox |
