Exciting week for anyone interested in naval affairs.


BTW.. it isn't all play....... the fleets conducted naval exercises
before coming here to help us celebrate.
We also get to check out a couple of supply ships that we may be
interested in. USS Fort George is one example and an interesting ship
from Denmark. Ours are approaching 50 years old.

The Tattoo will also be celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the navy.
Originally, the Queen was supposed to open it, but there was a big kerfuffle
about a staircase she would have to climb.
mmm wonder if she was talking to The Freak?

I'm much to cultured and refined to listen to that cacophony! Now if it
were and opera, I'd be there in a second.
