The one was executed for piracy the other was the first captain of the new aircraft carrier.
In the good old days of the RAF they bowed to the early stages of Wokeism and allowed women to go through as pilots. The first one pushed through was a girl called Judy Gibson who was, quite frankly, useless. She got chopped from fast-jet training and ended up on Andovers which was, at the time, the bottom rung of multis. The next one through was called Jo Salter who was the first one to get through as a fast-jet pilot. She got Gibsons slot which was on 617Sqn. Can you imagine the commotion if Judy Gibson had got onto 617, especially as Guy Gibson was their first CO. A missed PR coup
