I am sure that all members of the QE2 Story will support me in passing on huge congratulations to Captain Sir Ian McNaught on his Knighthood in the King's Birthday Honours List 2024.

A very well deserved honour to a man dedicated to his work and all those in his command. A very kind person and a much respected Captain of Queen Elizabeth 2.

In addition many congratulations to Lady Susan McNaught.

I think we should send a QE2 Story Congratulations card.  I still have his address, assuming he hasn't moved.

I have however lost his email address.  The one I was using previously has stopped working.

There are some nice pictures on the Gallery of Captain McNaught.

Cunarder Man' picture with Hamish is good.  Isabelle's photo at the book signing is funny but maybe not what you are looking for. 
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

 Knighthood is a 'fantastic honour' for Sunderland man who was last ever captain of the QE2

Does anyone know how to find out exactly when he'll be knighted?

Should be something published in advance in the Palace court and social lists, I would have thought - but not sure exactly where to look.
