EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the majestic HMS Manchester, a Royal Navy Type 42 destroyer, as it gracefully navigates through the vast Atlantic Ocean near Gibraltar. This remarkable vessel, which is the third to bear this prestigious name, was launched on November 24th, 1980. One striking feature of HMS Manchester is the bee proudly displayed on her funnel. Derived from the coat of arms of the City of Manchester, this emblem symbolizes industry and endeavor - qualities that resonate with both crew members and their home city. This formidable ship boasts an impressive list of battle honors earned throughout its service history. Notable among them are engagements in Norway and Spartivento during 1940, participation in Arctic operations and Malta convoys in 1942, as well as its deployment to the Persian Gulf in 1991. The photograph itself showcases not only the sheer power and sophistication of this destroyer but also highlights its importance within naval operations.
