HMS Junella
- ... that during the Falklands War a fishing trawler served in the Royal Navy as HMS Junella? "five deep sea trawlers, all between 1200 and 1500 tons, were taken up ... manned by RN crews ... of the 11th Minesweeping Squadron under the White Ensign" from: page 107 of: Villar, Captain Roger (1984). Merchant Ships at War: The Falklands Experience. London: Conway Maritime Press and Lloyd's of London Press. ISBN 0851772986.
- ALT1:... that HMS Junella carried a sea mine back from the Falklands War on her deck, covered by a wet mattress to keep the explosives cool? "HMS Junella, one of five trawler-minesweepers which returned to Rosyth on August 11m brought back with her from the Falklands a deadly reminder of her dangerous role during the last few months. Carried on her stern was a large, green mine - defused, but still packed with enough explosive to sink a ship ... as temperatures rose when the ship reached the tropics on the passage home, the mine was kept cool by covering it with a water-soaked mattress" from page 40 of: *"Junella Nurses Deadly Cargo". Navy News: 40. September 1982.
