Posted: Thu Mar 02, 2017 8:32 amOLEANDER was renamed OLMEDA in 1967 as the sound of the name was too close to LEANDER and could cause confusion (I believe).
Here is OLMEDA - A124 off the coast of Anglesey in a Force 8 gale, attending the 50th Anniversary celebration for the Battle of the Atlantic at Liverpool in May 1993.
