After torpedo planes helped to sink the 35.000-ton Bismarck in revenge for her destruction of the Hood, Nazi aircraft attacked the victorious British fleet and sonk the IBSO-ton destroyer Mashona. with probable loss of one officer and 45 men. Meanwhile, the admiralty said. British ships had picked up more than 100 survivors of the Bismarck after her destruction 400 miles west of Brest last Tuesday. while only three survivors of the Hood had bene accounted for. "On the day after the sinking of the Bismarck," the admiralty ur- nouncement said, “some of our na- val forces which had token part in operations leading up to des- trllclion of the German battleship .wero heavily attacked by German aircraft. "During these attacks HMS. Mashona a destroyer of the tribal class tCmdr. W. H. Selby RN.) was hit.

AND BLUE Do {in know why our soldiers wear ski? wh our airmen end sailors wear blue; Khaki comes from the Persian and means "dust-covered"-or "like the earth". When first. used for camouflaging our troops in Easbem campaigns, it was difficult to get s. khaki dyse the right shade so ex- perimen were made by dipping tfmtton uniforms into buckets of cof- ee. During the early part of the last war, khaki was a blend of seven colours resulting in a yellovvsh. green fabric. Later the number of colours was reduced to three - brown, indigo and white. Th:s pr». duced a cloth of much greater uni. formity and is approximately the combination used to-day. There is also an interest-lug tale attached to the use of "Air Force Blue". According to Mr. J. C. Paget a leading Oxford citizen. it was proposed by the Air Minister dur- ing the last war to clothe the new- l_v formed Air Force in horizon blue, the colour worn by the French Army. However. before this was de- clded. Russia went out of the war and it was arranged to use the large quantities of cloth still in English factories and intended for the Rus- sian infantry for the first R A.F. uniforms, ‘this colour was later of- fically adopted. Sir Henry, Price. the well-known authority on men's clothes. gives us the origin of "navy" blue. He says it was first worn by sailors arid fishermen in Chaucer's day as being the simplest dye for their rough suits of sack-cloth. Ever since this dark or "navy" blue has been used tn clothe English mariners. al- though sometimes in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries naval uni- forms included e red cap. striped trousers, and e crimson scarf.
