A dual purpose flagstaff - a photo on Flickriver

A dual purpose flagstaff

            I don't think the little dog knows this flagstaff is not just a hitching post, but is on the site of the former headquarters of the Royal Naval Patrol Service in WW2, responsible for protecting coastal Britain and its convoys, in particular undertaking minesweeping duties. Over 70,000 men and 6,000 vessels, many of them small civilian vessels such as armed trawlers, served in the RNPS during the war.
