Greetings
I am a full-time writer of historical nautical fiction with fourteen books currently in print. These mainly centre on an earlier period but I am now considering a series set around Coastal Forces' activity during the Second World War.
Let me assure you that I will not be seeking to dramatise or cheapen the exploits of men I have the utmost respect for; indeed my work has been praised for its for accuracy and understanding and I have every intention of representing the subject correctly.
I'm currently looking for details of HMS Wasp. Obviously there are pictures of the Lord Warden Hotel and the IWM has some (unidentified) images of parts of the base but it is difficult to work out the actual layout (and contemporary plans are, understandably, rare!). If anyone could help in any way, maybe a brief sketch plan of the base as it was in the early part of the war, or can direct me to a reliable source of reference I would be most grateful.
