I sort of swithched off last night watching the highlights after DD(no relation) refered to the "Massed Bands of the Household Division", tell that to the Marines. (And RAF)
But I did have a little chuckle, and please forgive me for this, DD(nr) descibed the President of the Merchant Navy Association as having an Uncle who was sunk and her Father as "missing for two years". As the son of a merchant seaman I can identify with that. But that's the point about DD(nr) he didn't give dates or a reason, so it sounded funny and it shouldn't.
One final thought. When will they show the faces of the Naval Guard during O God Our Help in Ages Past? You see they are all singing, as HMQ has made it known that she likes her sailors to sing. It takes three weeks to learn it off by heart, but we do.
