'WE WILL REMEMBER THOSE WHO HAVE CROSSED THE BAR'
The first ever Merchant Navy Day, the 3rd of September 2000. The Recognition of this Day will change the nations perspective of all merchant seafarers.
Let us use the momentum of this change to further develop the reputation of the Merchant service. We are all proud to be part of an extraordinary
heritage.
Through war and conflict, exploration and trade, suffering and sacrifice the Merchant Navy and its seafarers helped to develop a nation and secure
the freedoms we all now enjoy. Those Merchant Seafarers, who gave the ultimate sacrifice, have never been properly acknowledged or recognised, and nor have those who survived.
