Recently Discovered Uniform Goes On Display At The National Maritime Museum
The National Maritime Museum, Greenwich has acquired a rare and very special uniform and manuscript from the descendants of a former Naval Midshipman called Charles Hare. Hare was a teenage prisoner in Napoleonic France who successfully escaped by disguising himself as an officer in the French Imperial Customs Service (Les Douanes). This never seen before uniform went on display today in the Nelson, Navy, Nation gallery at the National Maritime Museum ahead of Trafalgar Day on Oct 21.
