Stirring Days in Falmouth Port Amid War Shipping Rush
In Falmouth England, war zone changes drive a harbor surge with American Dutch and other ships. The port, near Lands End, absorbs traffic due to disrupted routes from Cherbourg to Boulogne, while an American tanker grounds in the outer harbor and oil fouls bays and fisheries. Historic ships from Nelson era, the Implacable and the Cougay Trouin, now sit as stern reminders of naval power beside busy transatlantic liners.
