Medway Queen and the Smithsonian

24/7/2017

 
Picture
Medway Queen features in the current online version of the Smithsonian Magazine. A contact out of the blue requesting information on MQ's part in Operation Dynamo was responded to in quick time to meet a tight timescale and the article appeared online last week. Going from first contact to "in print" within just 3 days!

Read it for yourself at: http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/true-story-dunkirk-told-through-heroism-medway-queen-180964105/
 
The article contains details of Medway Queen's part in the operation with many links to other information including our own website. Appearances in magazines such as this are always very welcome as they put us before a new audience that may not already be familiar with the ship, her story and our efforts to restore her.

Good results are already apparent with a noticeable surge in website hits.
