As HMS Dorsetshire was being refitted, Vernon Brink and some of his shipmates were invited to watch a football match between Arsenal and Everton at Wembley. As far as Vernon could remember it was the last professional football match before the war stopped such things. Dixie Dean, the Arsenal legend was playing and after the National Anthem, the players changed from khaki into their strips, played the game and changed back into khaki. The trip was organised by South Africa house and they were taken to and from Wembley by bus. When I mentioned that was convenient, Vernon pointed out there was a blackout and it was easy to get lost in the streets of London. The picture is a view of the open bridge from the lookout barrel up the mast, obviously taken in warmer climes.www.sullatoberdalton.com/books/king-kaiser
