Britain in the Thirties - Mutiny at Invergordon

Описание к видео Britain in the Thirties - Mutiny at Invergordon

On Tuesday 15th September 1931 the men of the Britain's Atlantic Fleet mutinied. They refused to sail their ships south from their Scottish anchorage at Invergordon in protest against severe pay cuts proposed by the new National Government. The mutiny lasted for little more than 24 hours, but few of the men and officers serving with the Atlantic Fleet ever forgot the events of that September in 1931 - or the promise that their would be no victimisations of any of the leading mutineers.
