Mayday in the Falklands: Surrounded by Fire

from Real Survival Stories · host NOISER

May 1982 in the South Atlantic. Argentine jets speed towards a British naval destroyer. On board the vessel, down in the communications room, Chris Howe waits with bated breath. In a matter of seconds his life will be thrown into the balance. Engulfed by flames, it’ll take extraordinary bravery, and sheer luck, if he’s to make it off the ship alive… A Noiser production, written by Luke Lonergan.
