The Commodore's Flag

Welcome aboard H.M.S. Dreadnought, Commodore's flagship, Eastern Caribbean Division, N.American Station.

We fly the flag of Commodore Hon. James Norrington esq. RN, squadron commander and enforcer of the King's Writ throughout these lawless isles.

Please feel free to stay awhile and have a cup of good East Indian tea but be advised that below decks is strictly off-limits to civilians. Trespassers in secure areas to be arrested on sight, no questions asked. So don't even think about it.

Have a pleasant stay,
J.Christiansen, Post Captain, H.M.S. Dreadnought
T.Gillette, 1st Lieut., H.M.S. Dreadnought
