HMS Somerset Blog

I just came across a Blog that would interest anyone who went to sea or was in the Navy. It is written by the CO of the HMS Somerset, a British frigate.

The CO tends to write in cliches which is annoying, but it is a fascinating look at a way of life that most of us will never see. Check it out here.

  1. In “Warships” magazine, HMS Somerset is photographed sailing out of Plymouth with her anchors hanging down and not fully home. In recent years I,v noticed this a lot on RN ships. Is there a reason for this or just sloppy seamanship?
