Lord Nelson Trafalgar



The sweet smell of gunpowder and victory!!! The greatest military hero ever!!!
I've got a lot of the Anniversary issues last year, but I'm still missing a lot.
For those of you who don't know, Nelson masterminded the total annihilation of France and Spains combined fleet of 33 ships. 18 of which were totally destroyed. He did this with only 27 British vessels, and losing not a single ship. He only had 1700 casualties(counting himself), compared to France and Spains 7,000. He died knowing he had won a great victory.

God save the Queen!!
