A 35mm roll film negative. On board the commando carrier Hermes (1953) alongside 6 and 7 wharves in the north yard of Devonport Dockyard in early July 1973 towards the end of her conversion from a fixed wing aircraft carrier to a commando carrier. She recommissioned after conversion on 18 August 1973. The photographer is on the flight (1) deck looking to starboard at the port side of the island superstructure at 109 station showing storage trays and a steel locker by the weapons lift cover and a cable reel on the right. A fire point is partly hidden by an extension ladder leaning against the island and a steel locker is beside it. On the left is an angled perforated plate with two gas cylinders attached to it. Four men are working on the deck. The pendant number R12 can be seen at high level.
