Editorial comments:

2215. A copy in the Private Office files of Lord Carrington (also on this site) was redacted to remove reference to "secret reports". It seems Governor Hunt never received this telegram. See Mike Norman & Michael Jones The Falklands War: There and Back Again, The Story of Naval Party 8901 (2019), p99.
