George Washington died today in 1799. The Brits so respected their erstwhile enemy that ensigns were flown at half mast by the Royal Navy. George III was so struck by his voluntary retirement from the Presidency that he called him “the greatest character of the age.”

#OnThisDay in 1965 Sir Winston Churchill died. He was the First Lord of the Admiralty in two world wars and arguably the greatest British Prime Minister ever. He said. “We sleep safely at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would harm us.”

April 14th 1982: Avro Vulcan long range bombers begin refuelling practice with Victor Tankers. The refuelling probes, once taken off as unnecessary, are scavenged up from museums, old spares, a relic in Canada and one essential part is even found being used as an ashtray...

Today we remember the 20 men killed when HMS Sheffield became the first Royal Navy warship to be lost to enemy action since #WW2. #OTD in 1982, the Type 42 destroyer was part of the covering screen for the #Falklands task force when she was struck by an Exocet missile.

#OnThisDay 1918 Germany signed Armistice and the First World War ended. In that and all the wars to follow Royal Navy & Royal Marines have lost over 120,000 men and women serving this country. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
