The RN which once ruled the waves and won at Trafalgar is now a laughing stock throughout the world. In the year that we commemorate the re-capture of the Falkland Islands, we witness these events. I am saddened to the core by all this.
Nelson must be doing about 2000 rpm in his grave.
Don't have to go that far back........RN ruling the waves is still just in living memory almost.
An uncle now in his late 80's and a very proud ex-Jack who joined up just pre-WW2 and did 20+ years, served most of WW2 as an Oerlikon gunner in the RN Dog Boat fleet in the Med and later on did 2 x Royal Tournament's in the Field Gun Comp.
A proud old man's reaction to the events of the past few weeks are unprintable......
