Oil Tanker

Oct. 10, 1970 - Stricken tanker aground: Fire which engulfed the 42, 000 ton Liberian tanker Pacific Glory after a collision with another tanker off the Isle of Wight was out last night 421 hours after it started. This lessened the danger of an explosion aboard the ship which would release more of the oil cargo into the sea. Anti pollution squads stood by along the South Coast. Photo shows Wind of near-gale force whipping up the sea around the stricken tanker Pacific Glory, aground off the Isle of Wight yesterday
