Abstract: | Kmieni maż-żerniq tas-26 ta' Lulju 1941, sar wieħed mill-iktar attakki ta' sogru fuq Malta. Dik is-sena u ta' warajha pajjiżna kien fl-eqqel tal-Gwerra. Dak inhar, forza ta' 17-il "motor torpedo boat" Taljani dehru fuq ix-xefaq u ġrew b'ħeffa kbira lejn il -Port il-Kbir bl-għan li jattakkaw il-vapuri ta' Konvoj li kien għadu kemm wasal qawwi u sħiħ. Huma ġew milqugħin mill-kanuni tat-"3rd Coast Battery, R.M.A.", mill-Forti Sant Jiermu u sfaw meqrudin kollha. Din baqgħet meqjusa bħala waħda mill-aqwa rebħiet li għamlu d-difiżi tal-kosta ta' Malta fil-Gwerra. Il-Kmandant tal-Batterija tal-kanuni kien il-Kurunell (dak iż- żmien Maġġur) Henry Ferro R.M.A. |
