PLANTATION NAVY APPRECIATION DAY On November 3rd The Plantation will host the 12th Annual Navy Appreciation Day Golf Tournament.

  • 1945 October 22-28 Navy Day 1945
    1 1945 October 22-28 Navy Day 1945 (La Crosse Tribune, 1945 October 23, page 7) 2 Proclamations are often issued in observance of annual events or to recognize significant achievements by an individual or group of people. Navy Day in 1945 was both. Navy Day was established by the Navy League on October 27, 1922. The organization suggested October 27 as the annual day of observance to celebrate the United States Navy for two reasons: October 27 was the birthday of former President Theodore Roosevelt who was an advocate of a strong Navy to extend the power of the United States overseas and protect American interests October 27, 1775, was the anniversary of a Continental Congress report that called for the purchase of merchant ships to outfit as warships to create a navy1 In today's vernacular, one would also say that the navy was coming off a big win. The German and Japanese regimes were in the ashcan in large part because of the United States Navy. Past Navy Days in La Crosse included a dance at the Avalon ballroom and a mass swearing-in ceremony for new navy recruits. This year, 1945, the year of victory in World War II, offered much more. The star of Navy Day 1945 in La Crosse was LSM-104. LSM stands for "Landing Ship, Medium." It was one of the numerous fleets of amphibious vessels the navy used to deliver men, machines, and supplies to beaches. LSM-104 arrived in La Crosse on Monday, October 22.2 The ship had started out from Norfolk, Virginia, with two other ships of the same type.

    Westminster Abbey A W REATHLAYING CEREMONY AT THE GRAVE OF ADMIRAL LORD COCHRANE , TH 10 EARL OF DUNDONALD ON CHILEAN NAVY DAY Thursday 19th May 2016 11.00 am THE CHILEAN NAVY Today we honour those men and women who, over the centuries, have given their lives in defence of their country, and who, through doing so, have shown the world their courage and self-sacrifice. As a maritime country, Chile has important interests in trade and preventing the exploitation of fishing and other marine resources. The Chilean economy is heavily dependent on exports that reach the world markets through maritime transport. This is reflected by the fact that Chile is the third heaviest user of the Panama Canal. Ninety percent of its foreign trade is carried out by sea, accounting for almost fifty-five percent of its gross domestic product. The sea is vital for Chile’s economy, and the Navy exists to protect the country and serve its interests. Each year, on 21 st May, all the cities and towns throughout Chile celebrate the heroic deeds of Commander Arturo Prat and his men. On that day in 1879, Commander Arturo Prat was commanding the Esmeralda, a small wooden corvette built twenty-five years earlier in a Thames dockyard. With a sister vessel of lighter construction, the gunboat Covadonga, the Esmeralda had been left to blockade Iquique Harbour while the main fleet had been dispatched to other missions. They were confronted by two Peruvian warships, the Huáscar and the Independencia. Before battle had ensued, Commander Prat had made a rousing speech to his crew where he showed leadership to motivate them to engage in combat.

  • Corbett Paper No 20
    Corbett Paper No 20 The Chilean Navy as a case study in the value and performance of medium and small naval powers in South America Richard John Kouyoumdjian Inglis The Corbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies August 2018 The Chilean Navy as a case study in the value and performance of medium and small naval powers in South America Richard Kouyoumdjian Inglis • The Chilean Navy has been a good investment for Chile during its 200 years of existence. It was a key player in the consolidation of its independence and in the expansion of Chile both south, north and west, and after that it has helped to sustain a long period of uninterrupted peace. • How can this be continued at a time when Chile has neither serious issues with its neighbours nor direct threats to its maritime and physical territories? • The Chilean Navy’s culture is based on its victorious warfighting experience of the 19th but this will have to change as it actually spends a good part of its time on the delivery of maritime services rather than preparing to fight other navies. • The Chilean Navy is a highly efficient organisation capable of performing both these essential functions and should be valued and protected, not least because Chile has extensive maritime interest at home and a broader interest in the global sea-based trading system as a whole. • Like other South American countries, Chile must decide on how best to balance these two sets of tasks and what they require. Richard Kouyoumdjian Inglis is a Lieutenant Commander in the Chilean Naval Reserve having been in active service with the Chilean Navy between 1986 and 1994.

  • Iranian Navy Chief Visits Russian Naval Forces OE Watch Commentary: Hossein Khanzadi Assumed Command of the Regular Iranian Navy in November 2017
    MIDDLE EAST, NORTH AFRICA Iranian Navy Chief Visits Russian Naval Forces OE Watch Commentary: Hossein Khanzadi assumed command of the regular Iranian navy in November 2017. Since then, he has slowly been seeking to leave his mark on a branch of the military which is both increasingly central to Iranian force projection and has experienced major equipment problems in recent years. Increasingly, it appears that naval cooperation between Tehran and Moscow is becoming an important component of already burgeoning Russia-Iran ties. While Russia and Iran have long had maritime relations in the Caspian Sea, Khanzadi’s prominent appearance at Russian Navy Day festivities in St. Petersburg on 28 July—a report of which is excerpted in Iran’s conservative Fars News Agency—suggests both that Iran and Russia value their military cooperation. Russian support for the Iranian Navy could Admiral Khanzadi attending Russian Navy Day festivities in St. Petersburg, 28 July 2019. take many forms: Iran’s indigenous ships Source: Fars News Agency, https://media.farsnews.com/Uploaded/Files/Images/1398/05/07/13980507000677_Test_NewPhotoFree.jpg have proven unreliable and could benefit from Russian equipment or upgrades. Russia might provide resupply and other logistical support. In 2016, for example, an Iranian flotilla failed to make it into the Atlantic Ocean, ran out of supplies, and was forced into port in Durban, South Africa, for emergency repairs. While the Sisi regime in Egypt has prevented Iranian naval vessels from transiting the Suez Canal, Russia could send supply ships based at Tartus in Syria into the Red Sea to extend the Iranian ships’ deployment durations.
