In addition to carrying out hazardous “screening” work, the Sea Kings of No. 826 Squadron, operating from H.M.S. Hermes and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Fort Austin, flew supply missions, on one occasion delivering an S.A.S. team to Darwin; so, too, did the squadron’s helicopters carry out rescue work, not least in pulling to safety survivors from H.M.S. Coventry.
