Ships, Shipwrecks & Cannons

It would appear that there are plenty of stories about treasure and treasure hunters lately.

Some of the stories we hear are about treasure hunters are intriguing and show us how fascinating history can be although some about memorial thefts and metal thefts show a complete disregard for our heritage and the brave men and women who took part in wars to protect our freedom.

Here are some stories of interest I have come across lately in the news;

Should ship wrecks be left alone?
Titanic Message in a bottle
Cannon raised from Blackbeard ship, & Blackbeard’s cannon salvaged
Admiral Lord Nelson letter
Stories of those we should never forget
