Thread Name: How to commemorate Trafalgar bicentenary
Subject: RE: How to commemorate Trafalgar bicentenary
Devilmaster - a google search for HMS Hunter AND Trafalgar got no results. Interesting find: A midshipman serving on this ship grew famous later on: William Bligh of the Bounty. Could it be that your old unit HMCS Hunter holds the battle honours of the old HMS Hunter who fought the Americans on the Lake Erie in 1812?
