sir - i could think of no better location than in the mediterranean waters of an ally - AND for the benefit of all who travel there regardless of nationality.

I totally agree the waters around Malta would be suitable resting place for HMS Illustrious.

Malta and HMS Illustrious deserve each other for their service in WWII. It is fitting for the HMS Illustrious to rest where she was first assigned.
