A farewell to arms was created by Nikita

Le cimetière des bateaux (The cemetery of boats) by K'vell

Since 30 years he was in harbour. Together with the Rhône, at the entrance of the port of Lorient, he served as breakwater and additionally as perch for the sea birds. Born left bank in 1951 at the time of the DCAN shipyards, disarmed in 1982, the destroyer escort Bouvet is going to leave Lorient on May 5th, to join a demolition site, somewhere in Europe, "according to the European regulations", specifies the French Navy. Maybe we shall keep his patches «Honneur et Patrie» and «Valeur et Discipline», to remember there…

Time goes by… So long, old hull…
