HMS Glorious - The Most Infamous Carrier Sinking

Few sinkings are quite as infamous as HMS Glorious. Outside of the obvious ones like Yamato or Arizona, of course. Because Glorious had the misfortune to be the one and only fleet carrier...lost to enemy gunfire. It was one thing to lose a carrier to air attack or to submarines. Battleships, though? That was a different story entirely. And this is why Glorious remains a contentious topic, in naval history circles. Why was she sailing alone, with only two destroyers? Why were no planes scouting ahead? Why were no distress calls answered? Or, alternatively, why were none picked up? It's such a contentious topic, actually, that I'll be doing a future video dedicated entirely to the sinking. Today's will focus more on Glorious service, in general.
