Trafalgar Night in 2024

Almost forgot! Today is TRAFALGAR DAY - So probably the best joke about it that I know - @GylesB1 - this one is especially for you... ‘Nelson was 5ft 6” tall, but the statue on his column is 17ft 4”... That’s Horatio of about 3:1...’ Show more

219 years ago, Nelson’s bold leadership at Trafalgar secured Britain’s future. Today, with threats rising, we need that same fearless resolve and fresh strategies to protect our nation. Time to act decisively and defend what matters. #TrafalgarDay

Today we commemorate those who lost their lives during our victory at Trafalgar, the battle that shaped the modern world more than any other, 219 years ago. It’s a travesty it’s not a state holiday.

On this day – 219 years ago, the Battle of Trafalgar was fought. The last great battle of the age of sail. #RoyalNavy #FrenchNavy #SpanishNavy #Nelson
