The Bermuda Star is a merchant ship which, along with a fleet of other Merchant ships, in various dockyards throughout Britain, are hastily loading equipment, food, ammunition, vehicles, and urgently required Medical supplies. These are to be transported to the Mediterranean Island of Malta, which is suffering heavy air assaults from German aircraft attacking from North Africa.Malta, in particular, is suffering badly. The civilian population has little or no food, and water supplies have been damaged. This convoy must relieve the Island and its People, including the Royal Air Force defending them. However, there is a long way to go, and hopefully, the Fleet will be in time to save them from complete destruction.
