The Fairey Fulmar was a British
Carrier-borne reconnaissance fighter
Named after the Northern Fulmar,
A seabird native to the British Isles,
It
served with the Fleet Air Arm
During the Second World War.
Taking
part in the Battle of Cape Matapan
And
participating in the pursuit
Of the German battleship Bismarck,
The
Fulmars also played a part
In
protecting North Atlantic convoys
And
fought in the Pacific theatre
It remained
in front line service
Right
up until February of 1945
