Trafalgar Day is a moment to remember the @RoyalNavy’s greatest victory, and to pay tribute to the service and sacrifice of Lord Nelson’s sailors and marines.
As we honour their commitment and courage, 221 years on, I want to thank every member of today’s Royal Navy for theirs.
#OTD in 1805, the Royal Navy defeated the combined forces of France and Spain at Trafalgar.
The tactical brilliance, professionalism, technology and training which underpinned Adm Lord Nelson’s stunning victory have driven and shaped the Navy ever since.
