Trafalgar Day
October 21 marks the 202nd Anniversary of the Victory over the combined French
and Spanish fleets at the Battle of Trafalgar by by Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson on October 21, 1805. Listen for possible mentions of the Anniversary of the battle by the BBC. I was fortunate enough to sail through the waters where the battle took place whilst serving in the US Navy, and have always considered Admiral Lord Nelson one of my heroes. Lord Nelson died late in the battle. "England expects that every man will do his duty" dxAce Michigan USA |

MIKE THAT'S A DOH ! - FOR OUT RIGHT LYING ! the truth be told ~ RHF . Ok, I did more digging...It appears I am a lot closer to the truth than you are. ================================================== ===== It is a common misconception that Nelson's last words were, "Kiss me, Hardy", spoken to the captain of HMS Victory, Thomas Hardy. Nelson did, in fact, say these words to Hardy a short time before his death. Eyewitnesses testified that Hardy kissed the admiral twice: once on the cheek and once on the forehead, as Nelson struggled to remain conscious. Prior to this Nelson asked his flag-captain not to throw him overboard and to look after 'poor Lady Hamilton'. He then said "kiss me Hardy". After Hardy's first kiss Nelson said, "now I am satisfied". After the second, "who is that?". When he saw it was Hardy he said, "God bless you Hardy." However they were not his last words as Hardy was not present at his death, having been called back on deck. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horatio_Nelson#Last_words ================================================== ======= mike |
