The booking form for the Naval Dockyards Society TWENTY-THIRD ANNUAL CONFERENCE:

‘WE STAND ON GUARD FOR THEE.’ – Dockyards and Naval Bases in North America, the Atlantic and the Caribbean

to be held on Saturday 30 March 2019 at the National Maritime Museum Greenwich 11.00–4.30, is available on the ORDNANCE RELATED EVENTS page.

Volume 24 of the Ordnance Society Journal has now been published and copies posted to members.

This is the first Journal published for a considerable time and thanks are due to Andrew Tzavaras for pulling together the articles, to our current editor, Clive Woodley, for proof-reading and liaising with the authors, and to Kay Smith for preparing the final proof for publication.

This Newsletter was picked up from the printer this morning and is the post.  Happy New Year!

A new web-site “Bomb Fuze Collectors Net” has been added to the ‘LINKS’ page; with a very interesting range of information and MANY photographs.

The latest Newsletter is now available for downloading from the web-site PUBLICATIONS page and its password has been added to the “Ordnance Society Newsletter Passwords” file, on the same page.  Hard copies will be posted to those members opting for printed newsletters early in the New Year; the delay being due to the Christmas workload at printing companies and the holiday shutdown.

INVITATION TO THE ROYAL ARTILLERY COLLECTION, LARKHILL.  There is an opportunity for members of the Ordnance Society to visit the collection on the morning of Weds 23rd Jan 2019, but early registration is ESSENTIAL.  See VISITS PAGE.

Our new Journal Editor Clive Woodley has picked up the excellent work done by Andrew Tzavaras and has produced a proof version of the long awaited Journal Volume No. 24 – publication is imminent.

Member Steve Walton has scanned more of the ‘old’ Journals and these have just been uploaded to the web-site – we now have Volumes 1-  21 available for download from the PUBLICATIONS page.  The password list to open all of these has also been updated.
