What great pics
One of those shots isn't Eagle though (the shot with a clear deck). I could pitch a guess at which one it is but I won't. There ya go.. instant quiz

I don't think it's either of those

I'm torn between 2 choices.. HMS Bulwark and HMS Albion. I
think it's Bulwark

Well, based on the extension below the aft landing craft I'll go
Albion over
Bulwark
Of course, if this was one of those CSI TV shows we could zoom in and read the cap tallies!

Thank you for sharing these. Several generations of politicians should be soundly beaten with spare copies of these albums.

I looked again after I'd posted Paul and was leaning more toward Albion than Bulwark by the end of play. Dangerous to say exactly which is which without catching phots of both at the same time but I'd punt for Albion too. Saw her alongside in Pompey when I was a tiddler visiting for Navy Days
