The Royal Hospital School Revisited

Hide jnr revisiting RHS 45 years after joining
Lots of memories, not all bad.

The original Royal Hospital School; Greenwich

27th April 1937 saw the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich opened by King George VI & Queen Elizabeth 1st, and accompanied by the then Princess Elizabeth.
The Royal party were escorted from Westminster to Greenwich by the 1st MTB Flotilla.
The National maritime Museum was formerly The Royal Hospital School and still has the RHS name-plate on the wall left of the entrance.

The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd MTB Flotillas [MTBs 01-19]were all Scott-Pain boats built at Hythe.
