This message is from Wampit who made the change on Cricket. This is one of my first few attempts to add info so bear with we as I get the hang of this. There is no doubt that the wreck of HMS Cricket is off Cyprus and can be dived today.

I made a couple of earlier changes regarding the name of HMS Cicada. A Cicala is the same annoying bug but a different spelling. Have absolutely NO doubt that the Insect Class ship Cicala was never named, or referred to, as Cicada. I've seen this in a couple of US texts and I assume they changed it because they thought it was misspelled. The Royal Navy never referred to HMS Cicala as Cicada and there are a large number of reputable sources to back that up.
