90 years to the day today since the Endurance was crushed beneath the Ice!

The current HMS Endurance is now going to try and find her :eek: Amazing! Best of luck to them, it would be awesome if they did.

BBC film of current expidition - http://news.bbc.co.uk/nolavconsole/ukfs_news/hi/newsid_4450000/newsid_4457200/bb_wm_4457298.stm

Theres a good Kodak site about the 1914 expidition with a lot of Frank Hurleys superlative photo's on.

Upmost respect to Shackleton, a true leader and hero.

I just done a Presentation in uni about the German high seas fleet and the Royal navy's naval warfare from 1914-16!

Quite interesting.
