3 Sept is Merchant Navy Day in the UK, to honor all the brave men and women who serve in the merchant Navy, both past and present. The Red Ensign is flown to recognize their sacrifices, both past and present.

I can not transit by Tower and NOT stop and pay my respects. And what a day for it too.

Also - screw you Trump. The Falklands are off limits.

Update to the merchant vessel attack.

No casualties reported which is positive news.

But.

Still too many seafarers caught up in this through no fault of their own.

And no end in sight.

Another strike on a merchant vessel. This time in the Bab al’Mandeb Strait.

Can’t find it being reported in western media - but Indian and Gulf news all reporting it.

All reported safe, but the vessel has been sunk.

There is another aspect that receives almost no attention.

The English Channel is not an isolated operational area.

It is one of the busiest commercial waterways in the world, with hundreds of merchant ships transiting every day.

Prediction: Merchant shipping would struggle with coordination.

Reality: Overtaken.

This is no longer a coordination issue. It is now a survivability issue for crews and vessels.

Unverified update on the Merchant Vessel attack.

Iran have claimed to have targeted it with a cruise missile…

This is serious escalation and a clear breach of the ceasefire terms in place.

Add this to the Lebanon escalation and this may be what Trump uses to attack.

I watched the film Greyhound about an Atlantic convoy last night. Brilliant film.

The Belgian Navy doesn't have frigates available to send to the Eastern Med. Don't worry. The Belgian Merchant Navy is in the Persian Gulf. We'll let you know when it's safe again.... #MerchantNavy (sorry, I couldn't resist some friendly ribbing)
