 * As an eye witness  of this incident I can only dispute one  fact in this very good article. Cardiff's Report of Proceedings (7) is inaccurate about HMS Cardiff firing two missiles . I witnessed, in the darkness of Cardiff's Bridge, one missile launch (unmistakable) and not two as stated in the ROP. I understand that there will never be any  update to this event because of the ROP  stating a two missiles were launch but I can categorically state that this information is  not correct.

-* I have, after many years of waiting, documented evidence in the form of a copy of HMS Cardiff's Ship's Log entry from the National Archives that my personal experience of the incident stating one missile was fired was indeed accurate. I have edited the article to reflect the new document.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Griffiths911~commonswiki|Griffiths911~commonswiki]] ([[User talk:Griffiths911~commonswiki#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Griffiths911~commonswiki|contribs]]) 05:28, 30 March 2017 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
