Chatham, Kent. The smiling Prince of Wales, Sub-Lieutenant, aboard HMS Minerva, leaves the vessel which arrived here earlier today. Yesterday, Minerva, a Leander-class frigate en route for home from Antwerp, was fog-bond in the Medway. At the quayside, the Prince took the wheel of his waiting Aston Martin car and drove off. He is due to spend his Christmas leave at Windsor Castle. In the New Year, the Minerva is due to leave for the West Indies
