Summary

Description The British large fleet tanker RFA Olna (A123) underway as part of a multinational force stationed in the Persian Gulf region. As forces built up in the Persian Gulf, Olna joined the British task force on station. Olna arrived in August 1990, shortly after Iraq invaded Kuwait, and apart from a short maintenance period in Singapore was on station for the whole duration of the conflict. Olna operated further north than any other tanker as the U.S. Navy was wary of mines after two ships had been severely damaged.
