Note that HMS does not necessarily mean 'Her Majesty's Ship.'
As Ian Mackintosh made fun of in his short-lived comedey series,
'HMS Thundercloud,' bases are also given the name HMS. It would
have been during his posting on HMS President that Ian would
have been working on his television series 'HMS Warship.'
Anyone who served with Ian is urged to contact his brother,
Lawrie, whom the OpsRoom thanks for making
this find available.
