The Navy Net, Rum Ration, is an unofficial site for (mainly UK) Royal Navy (RN), Royal Marines (RM) and Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA). The site is in no way linked to the Ministry of Defence.
The heart of the site is the forum area. Some forums are combined for all Navy trades and the Marines, while others deal with specific trades, e.g. Royal Navy Reserve, Submariners, the Fleet Air Arm and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary
Members are both serving and ex Navy and Marines, as well as overseas military and anyone interested in all things naval.

No one is using the live chat system at the moment, although it does get busy most evenings. So come back later, or you could start the ball rolling.

The Navy According to the RRPedia
The modern RN are bronzed, suave purveyors of usually staunchly hetero Pork Sword to the less aesthetically blessed ladies in the furthest corners of the Globe.
....also known as the Senior Service, to distinguish it from Johnny-come-lately British Army regiments (the apparently 'elder' Army units trace their unbroken lineage back into the mists of time - or the XVIth Century at least - when the Royal Navy had been already been successfully subduing foreigners for about 700 years).
The Royal Navy traces its origins to King Alfred, which is perhaps a little optimistic. The Crown has maintained a permanent fleet since the reign of Henry VII, but a concrete date would be the establishment of the Navy Board by his son, Henry VIII in 1546.
Within the Royal Navy and complimenting its seaborne war-fighting capabilities are the men of the Royal Marines. Their service to the Crown has been so ubiquitous that their cap badge consists simply of a Globe and Laurel, signifying that Real Marines have won victories in every part of the world.
