Sean Fletcher visits Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, Devon, to meet service personnel past and present, and to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Sean finds out about college life from Captain Andy Bray, who oversees the hundreds of cadets who train to become Royal Navy officers at the college. He then visits the college chapel, where he discovers a story of remembrance, which still resonates with recruits today, about a former student who lost his life in the First World War, aged just 15.

Down on the banks of the River Dart, Sean meets Jack Machell, a trainee whose faith inspired his decision to pursue a life of service in the Royal Navy.

And Falklands War veteran the Rev Brian Williams explains the lasting importance of remembrance. He recalls his traumatic experience on HMS Sheffield and how his faith helped sustain him during the conflict and has done so ever since.

With hymns and music fitting for this day of reflection.
