  • The Aubrey-Maturin Chronicles: Master and Commander / Post Captain / Hms Surprise Volume 1 Ebook
    FREETHE AUBREY-MATURIN CHRONICLES: MASTER AND COMMANDER / POST CAPTAIN / HMS SURPRISE VOLUME 1 EBOOK Patrick O'Brian,Robert Hardy | 9 pages | 01 May 2009 | HarperCollins Publishers | 9780007319305 | English | London, United Kingdom The Ships of Jack Aubrey Like any stout-hearted Royal Navy midshipman or lieutenant, Jack Aubrey hungered for glory and for command of a ship. Indeed, the two were vitally connected, for the first was a path to the second and the latter -- with luck -- could bring the former. In the very first chapter of the first volume in Patrick O'Brian's magnificent series of novels about Jack Aubrey and his friend Stephen Maturin, Aubrey obtained his first real command on April 19, And glory followed. This web page explores all of Jack Aubrey's vessels from the small sloop-of-war HMS Sophie of which he takes command at the beginning of Master and Commander through more than a dozen other sloops, frigates and ships-of-the-line until we leave him in The Final, Unfinished Voyage of Jack Aubrey on the ship-of-the-line Suffolk, having raised his flag as rear admiral. And for any who might protest at the imprecision in the title of this page, the Sophie being only a brig and thus not truly a ship by the definition of the sea, I must fall back upon the sage words of that eminent nautical authority, Stephen Maturin: "Let us not be pedantical, for all love! For more than a decade I have been an avid fan of the nautical novels of Patrick O'Brian, an enthusiasm growing out of my long-standing interest in naval warships of the "Age of Fighting Sail" perhaps first sparked by childhood visits to "Old Ironsides".

  • 1960'S SHIP's LOGS
    By Sam185 1960’s SHIP’S LOGS Last Updated 1st December 2020 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION Page 2 LIST OF SHIP’S LOGS Page 3 1964 Page 4 1965 Page 11 1966 Page 26 1967 Page 31 1968 Page 37 ©Sam185 2012, 2013 Page 1 INTRODUCTION The information contained in the following pages has been transcribed directly from the official SHIP’S LOGs of HMS RELENTLESS which can be viewed at the National Archives in Kew. In the main, these logs were completed by the Officer of the Watch (OOW) when the ship was at sea and by the Quartermaster (QM) when the ship was in harbour. Each log, representing one calendar month, was completed in PENCIL, with no erasure allowed. Any errors were crossed out and the correct data entered, and each log was signed and dated by the Captain on a weekly basis. There does not appear to be any strict rule regarding what goes in the logs. Some OOWs were diligent in completing the logs, some were not. The same is true of entries made by the QM. Quite a few log entries have NOT been transcribed. When at sea, there are numerous entries regarding changes of course eg.”a/c to avoid fishing vessels” and in harbour, many references to the Guard Boat or MOD Police patrols, or ships passing. As is the way of things, many entries are abbreviated, have acronyms or are accepted Naval terms or expressions and these are shown ‘as is’. Ships names are shown in upper case eg. JUPITER or RFA OLMEDA. Shore Establishments are styled as follows: HMS Mercury Any data show in italics is information added to clarify or question the log entries, and entries shown in quotes are verbatim.

  • February 19, 6:00 PM - Selby Library, 1331 First St., Sarasota Remembering Tocobaga: Recent Archaeology at the Safety Harbor Site in Tampa Bay
    F E B R U A R Y - 2 0 2 0 PRESERVATION EDUCATION RESEARCH INSPIRE Dear Member: A huge thanks to everyone who attended our all day In-Depth Seminar on “Neanderthals & Early Humans”. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did putting it on. Now the Board has to figure on how we top it next year! This month we are featuring Dr. Thomas Pluckhahn of University of South Florida. He is going to tell us about his recent excavations at the Safety Harbor Site in Tampa. Come join us on the 19th. Don’t forget your dues are now due. Previously membership dues were collected on your anniversary date, but this has proven very hard to administer. So with that in mind, the Board changed the procedure so that all member- ship dues will be due in January. Thank you for being a Time Sifters member. Darwin “Smitty” Smith, President [email protected] February 19, 6:00 PM - Selby Library, 1331 First St., Sarasota Remembering Tocobaga: Recent Archaeology at the Safety Harbor Site in Tampa Bay Dr. Tom Pluckhahn Professor, University of South Florida The Safety Harbor site is widely recognized as the probable location of the native town of Tocobaga, where Spanish Governor Pedro Menéndez de Avilés established a short-lived mission-fort in the 1560s. It later became the location for the plantation owned by one of the area’s most legendary settlers, “Count” Odet Philippe. Philippe is said to have been a childhood friend of Napoleon. He was the first European settler of Pinellas County, the first to cultivate citrus in Florida, and the first to introduce cigar rolling to Tampa Bay; generally omitted from such tall tales is the fact that he was slave owner of likely Afro-Caribbean heritage.

In his recent visit and during the flights to and from India and Nepal, Lord Mountbatten wrote his reminiscences as a Communicator. The majority of his article was then typed by the Prince of Wales’ Staff in his aeroplane. We are therefore especially grateful to Lord Mountbatten, for having been so unstinting in bis time and effort and letting us share with him some of his communication memories.

  • HMS Mercury to the Final Closure of SCU Leydene
    H.M.S. MERCURY Swift and Faithful 1941 - 1993 1 Contents Contents 02 Introduction 03 Mercury The Second World War the beginning 04 Rapid expansion 05 After the war 9 Modernisation 10 The final building programme 20 The modern establishment 29 Closure and Leydene 31 Supplement The Peel Family 34 Leydene 35 Early Signal Schools 38 Appendices 1. Signals and memorandum 40 2. Communications training establishments 44 3. The changing face of Mercury 46 4. Maps 49 References and Acknowledgements 51 2 Introduction. This is a short history of the Royal Naval establishment H.M.S. Mercury. The difference between writing a history of a person or a ship, as opposed to an establishment, is the establishment does not move. It does not interact with other objects or people as a ship or person would. Therefore, this history concentrates on the structural aspects of the establishment and the reasons for their existence. The ‘blood’ of the establishment is the people who populate it. These people changeover the years, arriving and leaving and sometimes coming back. They provide some aspects of the character of the establishment and in return the establishment imposes its character on the people. Mercury was a very popular establishment. Its isolation from the main command area of Portsmouth was a bane to some and a blessing to others. It made the Communicators feel different, unique and gave them a certain pride in their branch and their work. They knew, while serving on a distant station or ship, if they had a problem, Mercury would help them out.
