HMS Ocean? I don't suppose the RAF has a plane called the "Air"?

Think they will send an Armada in retaliation? These must be the same guy's who navigate for NASA.
1.5 miles down the beach or 1.5 km, I can't remember?

This is my favorite part of the story. The 20-strong Royal Marine landed on the beach and faced off against two police officers and a group of tourists. And the mayor of the town got to say this:

"They landed on our coast to confront a supposed enemy with typical Commando tactics. But we managed to hold them on the beach."

I would kill to get as good a setup as this!
