HMS Aldborough (1727)
- ... that two junior officers aboard the sixth-rate coastal survey vessel HMS Aldborough would later rise to the rank of Admiral in the Royal Navy?
- ALT1:... that two future Admirals of the Royal Navy began their careers aboard HMS Aldborough, a sixth-rate coastal survey vessel ?
- Comment: Article is a little short and the ship is fairly undistinguished, but having two future Admirals serving aboard as their first naval experience, is hopefully interesting enough for a DYK.

A shortish but well written article about a fairly obscure ship - raised to notability by the claim in the hook - which is properly supported by online sources. The rest of the article content is sourced from an offline book so AGF applies insofar as potential copyvio or paraphrasing issues are concerned. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:51, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
