Once Navy - Always Navy
 

Trafalgar 200
Battle of Trafalgar
The 2005 Dinner & Dance
 October 21, 2005

2005,  marked the 200th anniversary of Admiral Lord Nelson's famous victory over the French and Spanish Fleets, a remarkable feat as the British Fleet were heavily out numbered.

The Southern Ontario Branch celebrated this very special occasion on the actual day, Friday October 21st. A lot of work and preparation paid off and we all enjoyed the best Trafalgar Dinner since the Branch was founded 21 years ago.

During dinner a PowerPoint presentation was played to put guests in a truly Trafalgar mood.  Click HERE to view. [This was complied in Office XP, so if you have earlier versions of office it may not run. An attempt to convert to Office 97 version failed....sorry shipmates.]

Below are some of the first pictures to arrive to commemorate this wonderful night
