In Memoriam: Colin White

The 1805 Club and the Society for Nautical Research have joined forces to create a substantive and long term memorial which the consensus of the Gunrrom feels would be appropriate to join with. This is an annual series of lectures by several speakers on the theme of naval leadership with an intended audience of young historians and naval people, a project which Colin himself started a year of so before his final illness. Thus it is very appropriate.

1805 and SNR have each put £1000 into the project and have thus secured it for the first three years. The Gunroom's contribution would be acknowledged as part of the endowment and would be a substantial augmentation to the endowment.
