The Crossing the Line Ceremony for HMS HMS NEW ZEALAND took place on 8 May 1919

Many thanks are due to Bev Edmonds who owns the original program, who took the time and trouble to have it photo-copied and then sent it to me by snail mail to put on-line - hence the photographs aren't quite all we would wish, although hopefully, in due course, we will be able to put this right.

I do hope that this program gives you a little flavour of a unique Naval tradition - and if you should happen to find a relative too then so much the better - enjoy!
