  • Is the dab link in "high standard in gunnery" intentional?
    • The first bullet point is as close as I can get to a proper link.
  • "the relief force of that reached the foreign quarter of Tientsin on 24 June." The 'of that' here reads awkwardly.
  • Is there a link or explanation somewhere for what a prize firing is?
    • Not that I can find. It's basically an annual gunnery shoot that every ship is required to do. When I was in the Army it was our annual qualification on our weapons.
  • In the image caption 'A 12-pounder gun on one of Scott's carriages in Natal, South Africa" Natal is a dab link.
