I thought this was a great picture in terms of scale. This is from a Spanish ship from the Battle of Trafalgar. If you haven't seen HMS VICTORY yet, I recommend making the treck!

Those were the times...
Victory was indeed amazing. I did the last tour of the day with the 2 Brit fellow squids. Got behind the ropes with the Senior Enlisted guy there prepping for a VIP group, I drank several free beers and watched Britcoms with the 2 fellow squids on the TV they had hidden. I went back several times while we were there because it was amazing!

Thanks for sharing. I remember the plate above the entrance to the astronomy classrroom in the Naval Academy: "The world learned to navigate with Spanish books".
I'd love to see that flag returned to his lawful owners, Spanish Armada

2wThat flag belonged to #Spanish #Armada ship #San Ildefonso and was built in #Cartagena Arsenal, nowadays #Navantia. Proud of our predecessors for a such a good work with that ship which, even after being captured, continued her life as #HMS San Ildefonso. Some of us have the privilege to see every day a fantastic model of the ship in our offices.
