Description
HMS Kingston
Watercolour
Under intense air attack, the Maltese Islands ware the only offensive allied place in the Mediterranean. Field Marshall Rommel was pushing back the British in North Africa and the only way to check his advance was to attack sea transport supplying him with fuel and supplies.
As a consequence the ports and airfields were continuously bombed by the Luftwaffe and the Reggia Aeronautica.
There was no protection from the arial attack and the Royal Navy suffered heavily. HMS Kingston was hit in a dry-dock while undergoing repair.
