Surcouf Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 The guns are demilitarized, they are not pierced until one end. They put explosive charges (ball of powder) to shoot blank. But the sound effect is the same as a real shot, and the ship is also shaking a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surcouf Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 In France they sing a charivari. A digressive song against an officer. This song is tolerated by the officers, it is only used during force work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marquis de la Fayette Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Merci à tous pour ces magnifiques photos et vidéos. Compte tenu de mon pseudonyme, j'y suis particulièrement sensible ... Sachez cependant que La Fayette (ce n'est pas tout à fait son nom d'ailleurs) a également utilisé d'autres navires tout aussi intéressants. Bon vent à tous.

Archer11 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Often I'm sitting here in the office and "Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul... " (Melville, Moby Dick), I visit this thread. It's just beautiful. Thanks a lot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surcouf Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de La Fayette is only a passenger of l'Hermione. L'Hermione to a whole other life than that shared with the Marquis. It's a story, but La Fayette is just a comma in the history of l'Hermione. Just a passenger. L'Hermione made a small war campaign in the Bay of Biscay and going up the Channel where she chased the corsairs in 1779. Then she went off to fight for two years (1780/1782) in the United States (La Fayette took advantage of her departure), she returned to France in 1782 and left to join her station in the Indian Ocean in the squadron of Admiral Suffren in 1783. She escorts a convoy while going there. She stays there for a few months. She did a lot of things in Europe afterwards and she grounded on the plateau du Four (France) by the malevolence of the pilot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
