Tall Ships are entering port today. An Arliegh Burke plus something else is in town also. I think the Aussies already pulled out.

Navy Centennial next year and they are planning on sending sailors out to towns with warships named after them and make framed ships print presentations.

I have my name in for HMCS Miramichi and HMCS Strathadam.

Blackfly...good luck with Miramichi and Strathadam! I read years back that Strathadam's bell was stolen from a local Legion. Don't know if they ever got it back!
