Friday Respect
The title 'Merchant Navy' was granted by King George V after the First World War to recognise the contribution made by merchant sailors. Britain's merchant fleet was the largest in the world during both world wars. In 1939, a third of the world's merchant ships were British, and there were some 200,000 sailors, serving from India, Hong Kong and west African countries.Details of red ensign ceremony here...
