YEARS ahead, years ahead,
Who shall honour our sailor-dead?
For the wild North Sea, the bleak North Sea,
Threshes and seethes so endlessly.
Gathering foam and changing crest
Heave and hurry, and know no rest
How can they mark our sailor-dead
In the years ahead?
Years ahead, years ahead,
The sea shall honour our sailor-dead!
No mound of mouldering earth shall show
The fighting place of the men below,
But a swirl of seas that gather and spill;
And the wind's wild chanty whistling shrill
Shall cry " Consider
my sailor-dead!"
In the years ahead.
Guy N. Pocock.
Do you have a story to tell? The Admirals and Captains have had their say, written their books: but what about you, your father or grandfather - have you memories or/and photos that could make a similar page. Send me the details and the photos and I will add a page on that ship(s),provided there is still room.
(If some of these links are not available please let me know, people sometimes change their web page without telling others, it can be very difficult to keep up with.

SHIPS (and Crews) that Deserve to be Remembered. Royal Naval History
YEARS ahead, years ahead,
Who shall honour our sailor-dead?
For the wild North Sea, the bleak North Sea,
Threshes and seethes so endlessly.
Gathering foam and changing crest
Heave and hurry, and know no rest
How can they mark our sailor-dead
In the years ahead?
Years ahead, years ahead,
The sea shall honour our sailor-dead!
No mound of mouldering earth shall show
The fighting place of the men below,
But a swirl of seas that gather and spill;
And the wind's wild chanty whistling shrill
Shall cry " Consider
my sailor-dead!"
In the years ahead.
Guy N. Pocock.
Do you have a story to tell? The Admirals and Captains have had their say, written their books: but what about you, your father or grandfather - have you memories or/and photos that could make a similar page. Send me the details and the photos and I will add a page on that ship(s),provided there is still room.
(If some of these links are not available please let me know, people sometimes change their web page without telling others, it can be very difficult to keep up with.
