Nelson's Band of Brothers: At Sea with the Crew of HMS Trafalgar

摘要

'Diving stations, diving stations. Dive now. Full dive on the planes' is piped over the intercom. HMS Trafalgar and her crew are in the Gulf of Mexico, and are preparing for deep-diving and full power trails in the final few days of a patrol which has stretched over almost four months. The boat, one of eleven nuclear-powered attack submarines currently in the British Fleet, sailed back under the Atlantic in time to join the rest of the Fleet and assembled international participants for the International Fleet Review, marking the bicentennial of the Battle of Trafalgar. This boat, which so proudly carries her historic name, was the centrepiece of the week's huge festivities.
