mikie Posted February 8, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 8, 2019 Here is my humble display honoring HMS Warspite, my favorite Royal Navy ship. A small barrel made from her teak, some RN uniform buttons, 2 Warspite themed cigarette cards, and an Admiral Jellicoe card. . She had a glorious history and her fate saddens me whenever I think about it. I am honored to have a small piece of her on my shelf. What are your favorite RN ships? Any memorabilia?

mikie Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share #4 Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks. The barrels and other items made from timbers of ships before scrapping was an old RN tradition. I just wish the USN did something similar. Mikie Link to comment
