EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic HMS Trafalgar, a Trafalgar Class Attack Submarine, as it makes its way to the fleet review in Portsmouth Dockyard. The image is part of the Trafalgar 200 celebrations, commemorating the bicentennial year of the historic Battle of Trafalgar. As Sea Britain 2005 takes center stage, the Royal Navy plays a pivotal role in honoring this momentous occasion. A series of grand public events are planned throughout June/July and October under the program titled "Trafalgar 200 Past Glories, Future Horizons". The summer festivities kicked off with an International Fleet Review on June 28th in the Solent waters. Over 160 vessels from around the world participated, representing all continents and including warships, tall ships, merchant ships, and yachts. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II herself reviewed The Fleet from HMS Endurance. The event showcased both tradition and modernity as a steam past and sail past featuring 300 warships, tall ships, and private yachts took place. Notably emphasizing youth involvement added an informal touch to this remarkable gathering. This particular photograph was submitted by LA (Phot) Husbands from Armed Forces for Peregrine '06 Photographic Competition (not affiliated with any company or commercial use).
