Don't Forget Your Old Shipmate

[@Teverell]

The footage is from the Hornblower TV mini series (A&E/Meridian) and the film Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World (20th Century Fox), with a couple of bits from HMS Defiant (Damn the Defiant, in the US), which is also 20th Century Fox, I believe.

You probably need to watch Master & Commander again! Not that you should need an excuse to watch it all over again. 😉

[@nealrose8653]

Read the books. Patrick O'Brien's Aubrey/Maturin series is worth the time. The movie is actually two books combined. Must admit they did a fine job splicing two complete novels into one, 2 hour film. Just can't expect the true nature of capt jack and stephen's relationship to be revealed. Maturin is actually a brittish spy.

[@ffiinnrrooddi5195]

@@nealrose8653 The books are good, if only they were more plot driven and less about Maturin's inner feelings. It drags the plot too much. Because of this aspect I prefer the Sharpe series.

My shipmates and I had a fifty-year reunion several years ago and it was one of the finest times of my life. I had anticipated a getting reacquainted period, but it wasn't so. Once we met at the hotel after all those years it was as if we had been together the day before. The thing I noticed most was that everyone had gotten older and larger lol.

[@filmandfirearms]

There's a couple errors in this. Firstly, it's not "or nigh", it's "o'ernight". It was a very common contraction back then, and you can also hear it in "Over the hills and far away" The line is not "toil nor danger fearin'", it's "toiled, no danger fearin'"

[@DariusOfPersia]

​@@filmandfirearms Are you completely sure about either of those? "Four years gone or nigh" (Four years gone or close to it) makes more sense than "Four years gone o'ernight" (Four years gone overnight.) Same thing for the other line. "Toil nor danger fearing" (Toil/work nor danger fearing) makes more sense than "toiled, no danger fearing" (toiled/worked, no danger fearing.) You can pretty clearly hear that it's "nor" and not "no" if you listen closely.

[@filmandfirearms]

@@DariusOfPersia How do either of those make more sense? Firstly, every sailor remembers the day he left home, even years after returning, it's not an uncertain thing, and we all know how even long stretches of time can seem like the blink of an eye in hindsight. Since the song is about two men finishing their service, it only makes sense they'd be talking about how quick the time seemed. Secondly, why would you fear work? Operating a ship is still a pretty dangerous job today, but back then, it wasn't uncommon for men to die on deck, even on civilian ships, most often from falling from the rigging. Since the surrounding lines all mention foul weather, which would make already very dangerous work even more dangerous. Lastly, there is clearly no "r" in that. When you consider that the singer clearly has a more northern accent, the "r" should be even more prominent, as you hear two lines later in the word "rearing"

[@DariusOfPersia]

@@filmandfirearms If you look up the song, the version listed as used in the movie uses these exact lyrics. O'ernight makes no sense at all. The word "rearing" doesn't appear in the song at all.

[@DariusOfPersia]

@@filmandfirearms And as for the "uncertainty" about the length of the voyage, it's not as if calendars were commonly owned items at the time. Not for the average sailors on warships, at least. It also could just be something poetic included to make the line fit the song, which realistically is what it is.

[@filmandfirearms]

Funnily enough, it seems that only Napoleonic naval warfare gets the sort of treatment of movies like Master and Commander and Hornblower. By that I mean, something which focuses on the difficulties of command, the complex strategy, and the camaraderie between the men. I think the closest I've ever come across was Danger Close and Прорив, but while both are great, neither of them have anywhere near the same depth of Master and Commander or Hornblower. It's unfortunate, because I think there's more than enough potential for it, but it just doesn't get utilized. Every land or air based war movie I've seen either ignores strategy and command completely, focusing entirely on the small unit, or takes a very callous and inhuman approach to strategy. Think Waterloo. The whole movie is basically a chess game between Wellesley and Bonaparte. I love that sort of thing, but it has limitations. Now, any good commander has to have a degree of the latter, you have to be mathematical with human life if you want to accomplish anything, but you can still consider the human element at the same time. A good officer knows that the men have to be close to their commanding officers if they want to succeed. I'm sure Zhukov, Patton, Montgomery, and any other great military leader you care to name, had to do the same as Aubery did many times. To look one of your own men in the face, knowing that you will have to get him killed to accomplish your mission and save the lives of his comrades. A modern movie about Zhukov at Khalkin Gol would be a great opportunity for exactly that. At the time, he was a low enough officer that he still regularly interacted with his men, but he was also high enough up to be the one making the hardest decisions

The bounty,with Mel gibson and Anthony Quinn. There is an older version,with Marlon Brando. Also,there is a spanish miniseries called Conquistadores Adventum,which is riveting.

[@Teverell]

M&C is the most historically accurate film set in this era that I know of, they went to great lengths to get everything right. I recommend the TV series Hornblower for a similar feel, albeit with a smaller budget. Captain Horatio Hornblower (the film with Greg Peck) and HMS Defiant are good, but being made in an earlier time, they took some liberties with accuracy - which isn't to say don't watch them, it's just something to be aware of.

It's so impressive how the British Empire sustained for so long. Their navy was dominate throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Their military record is very impressive. Compared to France who is known to surrender and lose to wars. And Spain who was a very dominate and powerful empire which it was a very impressive power it fell.

[@kallo182]

Dont Forget that in the early 1800s, French, Spain and USA was the Enemies of the Royal Navy. So the had no Friends, just Enemies on the Ocean. And still stand against those 3 Worldpowers.

[@xSCHEF]

France is known to surrender? They have the best military record in the world probably, and had to surrender to Blitzkrieg to safe their country, they put in their part since. Not taking away anything from the British navy because their history is immaculate. But please don't try to pass of the French because a necessary surrender by Vichy in WWII, have you forgotten Napoleon and WW1? Like Spain, which also was a impressive power, Britain too fell. I'm just going out on a limb here and say I'm talking to two biased Brits here.

[@alekzander2010]

Maurice The Guitar Hero France is actually known for winning wars. their victory:loss ratio is the best in the world on land

It always amazes me how stupid the average brit is. In the period from June 1812 to Dec 1814....Napoleon never faced the British. The Peninsular campaign was a sideshow to the battles in central and eastern Europe where the Prussians, Russians and Austrians destroyed some of Napoleon's largest armies. The British werent present for either. They werent even there when he was cornered in Paris. The US was on the offensive till the last days of the War of 1812. The Niagara campaign of 1814 severly mauled the BA in upper Canada. The British even lost the field at Lundys Lane along with all of their artillery.

[@williameaton9058]

"US failed to take Canada (their main goal" By 1814, Britain wanted American territory via a policy of uti possedetis. Care to know why they didnt achieve that?

[@williameaton9058]

Occupied? lol thats funny. All the British did was enact a blockade of France while the eastern European powers wiped the landscape with Napoleon. By 1814 the British did send close to 50,000 troops to Canada, comparable to that of the Battle of Talavera all for naught. Most of the retreating done in 1813-14 was by the British. In 1813 retreating from the L. Erie region only to be run down by frontier cavalry at Thames....retreating with 15,000 men back into Canada following defeat on L. Champlain. And retreating with the remnants of the army annihilated at New Orleans.

The Amis declared war on Britain because their sailors were being impressed into British service, disregarding the nations sovereignty (which was acknowledged after the Revolutionary War). And ya know, the war ended in a draw, that means neither side won. Both had astounding victories and losses. The Brits were occupied with Napoleon in Europe (wars that have determined the course of history) and America took advantage of the distraction to reaffirm its sovereignty. The Brits were in a tough place and America was smart and took the opportunity. I'm not trying to degrade either side, but instead tell both of you that we are now some of the best allies in the world and because of our combined efforts, we have been able to bring the world into a new age, one where we have to time and safety to bicker about history. What is done is done. Learn from the past and with that knowledge look to the future.

"We have witnessed the gloom which which that event cast over high and honorable minds. we participated in the vexation and regret, and it is the first time we have ever heard that the striking of the English flag on the high seas to any thing like an equal force should be regarded by Englishmen with complacency and satisfaction." - Times " We would gladly give up all the laurels of Detroit to have it still to say that no British frigate ever struck to an American. We have sunk our own maritime character, for with a navy that could admit of no competitition, we have suffered ourselves to be beaten in detail, by a power that we should not have allowed to send a vessel to sea." Times "The news spread a degree of gloom throughout London, which was painful to observe. The invaluable reputation of the Royal Navy was undermined with incalculable consequences. It was a calamity of twenty times its amount that might have been attened with more serious consequences to the worsted party" Times on hearing of the Guerriere's defeat “It is not merely that an English frigate has been taken, after, what we are free to confess, may be called a brave resistance, but that it has been taken by a new enemy, and enemy unaccustomed to such triumphs, and likely to be rendered insolent and confident by them. …how important this triumph is in giving a tone and character to the war. Never before in the history of the world did an English frigate strike to an American.” - Times 1812 "The truth is that not a single American frigate has struck her flag. They insult and laugh at our want of enterprize and vigor." English paper late 1812 "the consequences of such an embarrasment would be ruinous. It will waste away the strength of the country and what is worse, it will break down the national spirit, so that gallant enterprize and far sighted undertakings will become foreign to our very nature, and the English character will dwindle into effeminacy and decrepitude." London Times warning of a war with America 1812 "The war with America ought to have been foreseen. Yet such was the total want of foresight, or of ignorance that British merchan shipping was being ravaged and its flag insulted." Morning Chronicle "The American frigates are said to be equal to line of battle ships. Why then had not we line of battle ships fight them?" London Times "There is a report that another English frigate has been captured by an American. We shall certainly be very backward in believing a second recurrence of such a national disgrace... Certainly there was a time when it would not have been believed that the American navy could have appeared upon the high seas after a six month's war with England, much less than it could, within that period have been twice victorious." London Times late 1812 "In the name of God what was done with this immense superiority of force...Of what a charm is hereby dissolved. What hopes will be excited in the breasts of our enemies. The land spell of the French is broken and so is our sea spell." London Times having learned of the loss of the HMS Macedonian "It is not sickening to see that no experience has been sufficient to rouse our Admiralty to take such measures that may protect the British flag from such disgrace." "We are satisfied that every individual in the country must feel humiliated at this succession of disasters which thus mock and render nugatory our boasted naval superiority." -London Chronicle "We have suffered ourselves to be beaten in detail" - London Times 1812

Britannia rules the waves.

[@seanod7157]

Nothing beats primary sources. I wonder if part of the reason the fledgling USN thumped the RN in 1812 is because at that time Americans were British. Same language, culture, outlook, religion etc. We out Britished the British.

[@williameaton9058]

Britannia rules jack shit... "In summary of the whole American war, most of which we had experienced, there had been little if anything to flatter our vanity, or increase self importance. Except a few successes in Canada, at its very commencement...it will be found that our arms have been constantly baffled or repulsed on shore." George Gleig - British soldier 1812-15 "We have witnessed the gloom which which that event cast over high and honorable minds. we participated in the vexation and regret, and it is the first time we have ever heard that the striking of the English flag on the high seas to any thing like an equal force should be regarded by Englishmen with complacency and satisfaction." - Times " We would gladly give up all the laurels of Detroit to have it still to say that no British frigate ever struck to an American.

"the American privateers are still enabled to range unmolested." London Times 1814 "they have roved with impunity and success to all corners of the earth." Naval Chronicle on American privateers "The failure of the attempt on Baltimore and Drummond's bloody repulse at Fort Erie became known at the same time, and coming together at a critical moment threw confusion into the Ministry and their agents in the press and the diplomatic service throughout Europe. The Courier of October 25 declared that "peace with America is neither practicable nor desirable till we have wiped away this late disaster. On October 31, the Paris correspondents of the London Times told of the cheers that rose from the crowds at the Palais Royal gardens at each recital of the Plattsburgh defeat, and October 21, Goulburn wrote from Ghent to Bathurst:"The news from America is very far from satisfactory." "Looking to a continuance of the American war, our financial state is far from satisfactory. The American war will not cost us less than 10 million pounds, in addition to our peace establishment and other expenses." Lord Liverpool Oct 28 1814 "In view of recent events, we expect that their northern limits will be circumscribed and the command of the Mississippi wrested from them." Cochrane Sept 1814 "The British and the indians are natural allies" London Times 1812 We have retired from combat with the Stripes yet bleeding on our backs, and with the recent defeats, at Plattsburgh and Lake Champlain, unavenged. To make peace at such a moment, betrays a deadness to the feelings of honor, and shows a timidity of disposition, inviting further insults." Concluding entries by the Times Dec 1814

I heard that George Washington used to salute England with a glass of wine, as his hate was for the king but never for his motherland. In this instance, it’s easily understandable to see how the American founding fathers where honouring their English ancestors and following in the footsteps of the Magna Carta barons. Here you have the American patriot, leaning on a copy of the legendary English document: www.loc.gov/exhibits/magna-carta-muse-and-mentor/images/37771u_enlarge.jpg Cheers.
