Sto. George Arthur Calver

Royal Navy HMS Nelson

from:Worlingworth, Suffolk

My dad, George Calver, always said that he shut the boilers down on Nelson for the last time. Nelson was to be towed for scrapping, but the captain decided to steam the ship instead. According to dad (now deceased), the captain's words were, "we'll go under our own steam". This was the last journey for Nelson.
