Merchant Navy Day is again being commemorated by the Sussex Branch of the TS Vindicatrix Association.
We will be holding a Service of Remembrance in St Philip's Church, New Church Road, Hove, at 3pm on Sunday, September 1.
We are pleased to welcome the participation of the Deputy Mayor of Brighton and Hove, the Mayor of Worthing and the Chairman of Adur District Council.
We invite any member of other seafaring organisations, ex-servicemen and women and members of the general public who wish to honour those men and women who lost their lives in time of conflict during the past century to join us on the day.
Those viewers of the recent BBC2 series The Battle Of The Atlantic will have been reminded of the debt we all owe to those who gave their lives at sea.
