In 1916 Harold Stark had been the US Navy liaison officer on board the flagship HMS Iron Duke during the Battle of Jutland. A fellow shipmate and a good friend was a certain young British Lieutenant, Prince Albert (as he was known then), Duke of York. Thirty years later, during another war, in the run up to D-Day, a report landed on his desk at 20 Grosvenor Square indicating a potential problem concerning the important Mulberry Harbour. Admiral Stark, by-passing normal channels, went straight to the one man who he knew could cut through all Red Tape, both military and civilian - his old Iron Duke friend - now King George VI. Even Churchill could not refuse a request from his own monarch and the problem was quickly and efficiently resolved without further difficulty.
