Season 3: Episode 12 - Getting to know Alan Watson OBE
In this episode of Folk Tales we join Haslar Marina's Colin McLean and Captain of the 80 year old war vessel HMS Medusa, Alan Watson OBE. Alan shares a potted history of Medusa's illustrious career, from her first commissioning in 1943 to mine field marking on the eve of D-Day, right up to present day. She is an outstanding vessel and a much-loved member of the boatfolk community at Haslar Marina. We hope you enjoy listening!
