On March 17, 1952, HMS Glory set a record that still stands as one of the most intense days of carrier operations in British naval history — 106 sorties in a single day during the Korean War.
She flew Sea Fury and Firefly strike missions for UN forces in some of the most demanding conditions.
Would you have wanted to fly off her deck that day?

Michael Baumann and Bert Greiser were captured by border guards while trying to escape East Berlin in April 1989.
Both were born in East Germany in 1962 and had never known life without the wall. By the time they began planning their escape, border guards had killed 140 East Berliners at the wall, most recently just two months earlier.
