uncategorized tagged england example freedom on july 28 2011 27 comments nelson may the great god whom i worship grant to my country for the benefit of europe in general a great and glorious victory and may no misconduct in anyone tarnish it and may humanity after victory be the prominent feature in the british fleet for myself individually i commit my life to him that made me and may his blessing alight in my endeavours for serving my country faithfully to him i resign myself and the just cause which is entrusted to me to defend amen amen amen written by lord nelson in his diary while in view of the enemy october 21 1805 it is difficult to cast your mind back over two centuries to realise how the british people were in daily fear of invasion by napoleon here is thomas hardy in the trumpet major as anne watches from the cliff at portland bill while nelson sails for the battle of trafalgar and imagines bob aboard the victory the wild herbless weather worn promontory was quite a solitude and saving the one old lighthouse about fifty yards up the slope scarce a mark was visible to show that humanity had ever been near the spot the victory was fast dropping away she was on the horizon and soon appeared hull down that seemed like the beginning of a greater end than her vanishing the courses of the victory were absorbed into the main then her topsails went and then her top gallants she was now no more than a dead fly s wing on a sheet of spider s web and even this fragment diminished anne could hardly bear to see the end and yet she resolved not to flinch the admiral s flag sank behind the watery line and in a minute the very truck of the last topmast stole away the victory was gone the victory portsmouth harbour 1900 the victory may still be inspected in dry dock in portsmouth harbour nelson himself died of course from a sniper s bullet but no ships were lost here is a survivor the fighting temeraire being tugged to her last berth in 1838 as depicted by jmw turner the battle of trafalgar was the turning point in the war against napoleon as well the british knew huge crowds attended five days of nelson s funeral the ceremony in st paul s cathedral a symbol of freedom read full post churchill the hero posted in uncategorized tagged churchill example forgiveness lives resolve on january 29 2010 7 comments i was born in 1943 on the outskirts of london as a baby i was thrust under the morrison shelter whenever an air raid warning was sounded years later when the siren was occasionally used to signal a fire it would send a chill of horror to my very core when i was a very young child my mother described to me what it was like to live through the dark days of 1940 and how winston churchill was for her and all about her the lone voice of hope the battle of britain was fought above my home the centroid of biggin hill croydon and kenley aerodromes before the warning sounded the spitfires and hurricanes would climb high in the sky to their position of attack then the luftwaffe might inscribe a vapour trail circle to mark the place to bomb my parents mercifully escaped a direct hit i was brought up on the story of how a hurricane pilot bailed out was shot in his parachute harness and fell to earth in my garden my father went out with a neighbour the shrapnel flying round to attend to him i cannot remember a time i knew not those words never in the field of human history was so much owed by so many to so few at the age of six i watched a builder dig a deep trench beside the house to where a stagnant pool of water lay a v2 had fallen a mile away and shattered all the drains round about the trench was filled with concrete to stop my home falling down not long after my father took me to his beloved city and showed me the devastation of the blitz and the destruction of wren s churches he spoke of churchill s long and lonely warnings dating from hitler s rise to power the wilderness years and how he regarded churchill as the saviour of our country indeed the civilised world churchill never accorded victory to himself but to the british people averring that he merely supplied the roar the british people of those times knew otherwise not far from here is chartwell winston s country home now open to the public and cared for by the national trust it is for me and countless others a regular place of pilgrimage i look across from there over the beautiful weald of kent as he must have done and relive the mortal danger he led us through yet he more than any other begged magnanimity in victory it is a betrayal of his spirit and all he stood for to prolong recrimination hero is not a big enough word for him read full post thank you for calling 18 924 calls so far brickbats dafna on volume ii
