HMS London[edit]

Can´t see how HMS London could have been part of this "force" in 1939 when she was in Chatham dockyard "From March 1939 she was under reconstruction at the Chatham Dockyard," until early 1941! There is certainly no mention in the article HMS London of that... 80.151.9.187 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 10:52, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Commander-in-Chief, Sheerness[edit]

In the period after 1834 many of those listed were actually gazetted 'Commander-in-Chief at the Nore' rather than 'at Sheerness' (in contemporary lists of naval appointments); though some were indeed appointed 'C-in-C at Sheerness' and in some cases the designations seem to have been used interchangeably. (Perhaps this was down to the novelty of a Commander-in-Chief being based ashore rather than on a flagship?) Either way, the article seems to present an over-simplified summary of the situation.Barabbas1312 (talk) 10:21, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
