May the Great God, whom I worship, grant to my country and for the benefit of Europe in general, a great and glorious Victory; and may no misconduct in any one tarnish it; and may humanity after Victory be the predominant feature of the British Fleet. For myself, individually, I commit my life to Him who made me, and may His blessing light upon my endeavors for serving my Country faithfully. To Him I resign myself and the just cause which is entrusted to me to defend. Amen. Amen. Amen.This Sunday is Trafalgar Day, and you don't have to be British to celebrate the greatest battle of a great naval leader.
- Horatio, Lord Nelson
Outnumbered, but bold.
A hidebound enemy.
An opportunity.
Two videos tell the story better than I do.
Fullbore.
