Sadly the greatest generation is going West at a terrible rate. The first remembrance parade I attended in uniform was as an AB in 1978. There was a whole platoon of World War 1 vets, the last was the year before I retired in 2014 with only a few World War 2 vets able to march. I guess all we can do is honour their memory by not forgetting....

Good morning, gentlemen. I took advantage of the day's silence here to pop into the cyber-crewroom and give it a good clean. Danny's mug is safely in the display cabinet alongside the replica Coffman-Starter Trophy, which brings me to the latest offering for your delectation. Have at it, Sirs.

"So Nav, what you are telling me is that we must be on course because you are using that little glowing green light out off the starboard wing as your reference."
