| Abstract: | Fil-15 t' April 1942, sebgħin sena ilu, ir-Re George VI għoġbu jiddekora lil Malta bl-għotja tal-George Cross. Dik il-ħabta, Malta kienet għaddejjja minn attakki ħorox mil-Luftwaffe, ħbit bla waqfien, l-aktar fuq il-Port il-Kbir u l-Kottonera. Mat-tifrik u l-qerda tal-bombi jrid jiżdied in-nuqqas t'ikel u l-mard maħluq mix-xelters. F'dik l-istess ġurnata li ġie mogħti l-George Cross, il-vapur Malti l-S.S. Golly, ġie mgħarraq mill-bombi mixħutin mill-ajruplani Tedeski waqt li l-bastiment kien jinsab sorġut f'Jelties Wharf. Dakinhar ukoll, l-ajruplani tal-għadu qerdu żewġ luzzijiet tas-sajd f'Marsaxlokk. |
