July 25

Famed naval commander Horatio Nelson lost his right arm on this day in 1797 during the Battle of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Afterward he could be heard muttering to his surgeon, "I never should've said I'd give my right arm for a win."

19th October 1781, the revolutionary war effectively ends, as trapped in Yorktown, the British forces under General Cornwallis sign terms of surrender to George Washington and Comte de Rochambeau. After the surrender the British troops march out of Yorktown to the tune “The World Turned Upside Down.” 19th October 1812, after their capture of of Moscow, and the discovery that the retreating Russians have burned the city; Napoleon's ‘Grande Armée’ totaling 685,000 soldiers, the largest army ever assembled, begin their retreat to Poland. Caught in the brutal winter, facing hypothermia and preyed upon by Cossacks and Peasants, the army is decimated with 27,000 soldiers surviving the campaign, with 380,000 dying and 100,000 captured. 21st October 1805, as part of Napoleon’s plan to invade England, and dominate the English channel, a combined French and Spanish fleet set sail from the port of Cádiz and meet the Royal Navy off the Cape of Trafalgar. In the resulting chaotic and brutal battle, 27 British ships fight against 33 French and Spanish. Admiral Nelson’s battle order of ships into columns, and the order to sail directly into the enemy fleet, batters the British Ships, but the resulting close quarter fighting and the British superior navy training, decimated 22 of the French and Spanish ships, while the British lost none, apart from Nelson’s flagship HMS Victory being heavily damaged. During the battle Nelson is shot by a French sailor aboard the French ship Redoutable, and heard to exclaim, "They finally succeeded, I am dead." At the Battle's end, Nelson succumbed to the wound and died.

NATIONAL MUSEUM OF THE ROYAL NAVY 2 of 2 PORTSMOUTH HISTORIC DOCKYARD Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson (1758-1805) is renowned for the defeat of #napoleon at the #battleoftrafalgar , as well as many other great #naval victories. Nelson has long had a strong association with #portsmouth . His ship, the naval flagship #hmsvictory is now dry docked there as a tourist attraction, and a monument to Nelson was erected on Portsdown Hill some thirty years before Nelson's Column was raised in Trafalgar Square in London. In the early years of the 19th century, Nelson frequently visited Portsmouth, making him a familiar public face to the populace. #portsmouth #portsea #hampshire #uk #horationelson #navalhistory #britishhistory #heritage #art #historyofart #museum #exhibition #ahoy #lifeatsea #pompey #royalnavy #vessel (at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIsY_S0nf9p9OJTNyczGxB4-0q7AjTbbBen3v80/?igshid=1c5h2tzlh4eq1
