ABOARD H.MS ROYAL SOVEREIGN, July-16———
In blazing sunshine, traditional "King's weather." His Majesty to-day stood on the bridge of the royal yacht, the Victoria and Albert, and with three of his sons took the salute of Britain's mighty war fleet off Spithead.
An area of eleven square miles was filled with an orderly array of 157 warships and one hundred other gaily beflagged vessels.
His Majesty the King, with a keen naval-trained eye, swept the review as the royal yacht steamed through the avenues of grey, low-lying hulls, while the ships' companies manned the warships' sides and cheered lustily, and the roaring planes of the Fleet Air Arm dived low in salute.
