  • Issue 31, June 2019
    From the President I recently experienced a great sense of history and admiration for early Spanish and Portuguese navigators during visits to historic sites in Spain and Portugal. For example, the Barcelona Maritime Museum, housed in a ship yard dating from the 13th century and nearby towering Christopher Columbus column. In Lisbon the ‘Monument to the Discoveries’ reminds you of the achievements of great explorers who played a major role in Portugal's age of discovery and building its empire. Many great navigators including; Vasco da Gama, Magellan and Prince Henry the Navigator are commemorated. Similarly, in Gibraltar you are surrounded by military and naval heritage. Gibraltar was the port to which the badly damaged HMS Victory and Lord Nelson’s body were brought following the Battle of Trafalgar fought less than 100 miles to the west. This experience was also a reminder of the exploits of early voyages of discovery around Australia. Matthew Flinders, to whom Australians owe a debt of gratitude features in the June edition of the Naval Historical Review. The Review, with its assessment of this great navigator will be mailed to members in early June. Matthew Flinders grave was recently discovered during redevelopment work on Euston Station in London. Similarly, this edition of Call the Hands focuses on matters connected to Lieutenant Phillip Parker King RN and his ship, His Majesty’s Cutter (HMC) Mermaid which explored north west Australia in 1818. The well-known indigenous character Bungaree who lived in the Port Jackson area at the time accompanied Parker on this voyage. Other stories in this edition are inspired by more recent events such as the keel laying ceremony for the first Arafura Class patrol boat attended by the Chief of Navy.

  • Guns Blazing! Newsletter of the Naval Wargames Society No
    All Guns Blazing! Newsletter of the Naval Wargames Society No. 203 –March 2011 EDITORIAL Gentlemen, As I write this month‘s Editorial section I at my in-laws in South Oxfordshire during the half-term holiday and I have just been presented with a veritable treasure trove! My mother-in-law‘s grandfather, Percy Rolland Ponting, joined the Royal Marines in January 1903, and a box containing a lot of his papers has just come to light. I have only had time to skim the surface of all the information at present, but of particular interest is a document proving his gunnery practice—on one occasion in April 1904 eight rounds at 1,500 yards with a 6-inch QF, no less! However, there is also his ‗Certificate of Service‘, which lists the vessels he served on, and this could prove very interesting, indeed, even controversial! There is a record of prize money paid to his widow (Percy died of TB in Baku, 1919) for the destruction of U-27 and U-41. Both these boats were destroyed by the ‗Q-Ship‘ Baralong in 1915 in most controversial circumstances; possibly wearing the Stars and Stripes when going into action, and with claims of the Marines onboard shooting at German survivors. Hmm...I shall have to try and balance my interest as an amateur historian with family sensibilities here, I think! I came across this link on one of the naval wargame Yahoo Groups the other day and thought I‘d pass it on. It is a clip of the USS Missouri engaging targets during the first Gulf War.

  • Churchill, Wavell and Greece, 1941*
    Robin Higham Duty, Honor and Grand Strategy: Churchill, Wavell and Greece, 1941* In our previous works, then Capt. Harold E. Raugh and I took too limited a Mediterranean view of the background of the Greek campaign of 6-26 April 19411. Far from its being Raugh’s “disastrous mistake,” I argue that General Sir Archibald Wavell’s actions fitted both traditional British practice and the general policy worked out in London. In 1986 and 1987 I argued after long and careful thought since 1967 that Wavell went to Greece as part of a loyal deception of Prime Minister Winston Churchill, whose bellicose way at war was the antithesis of Wavell’s own professionalism. Further, whereas Raugh took the narrow military view, mine was a grand-strategic approach relating ends to means. My argument here is that a restudy of the campaign in Greece of 6-27 April 1941 utilizing the Orange Leonard ULTRA messages reconfirms my thesis that going to Greece was a deception and that far from being the miserable defeat which Raugh imagined, the withdrawal was a strategic triumph in the manner of a Wellington in Spain and Portugal or of the BEF’s in France in 1940. For this Wavell deserves full credit. In this respect, then, the so-called campaign in Greece must be seen not as an ignominious retreat in the face of superior forces, but rather as a skilful, carefully planned withdrawal and ultimate evacuation. It was a successful, though materially costly, gamble. * This paper was accepted for publication in late 2005 but delayed by the Balkan Studies financial crisis.
