M'Culloch

Does the large section on the actions of Lieutenant M'Culloch deserve to be here? An interesting action for sure, but it seems that Captain Sayer's only connection to the event is that he was the commanding officer of the ship from which M'Culloch's boat originated. This section seems to word for word also be in HMS Galatea, which seems more appropriate? Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 08:46, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I have trimmed it. Dormskirk (talk) 09:53, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
