There was joke, in the 1930s, when the Navy had three components: the RCN, the RCNR who were professional sailors on a sort standby for active service - often in Canada a sort ion 'fishermen's reserve - and the RCNVR, akin to today's Naval Reserve. The joke went:

​

1. The RCNVR are gentlemen pretending to be sailors;​

2. The RCNR are sailors pretending to be gentlemen; and​

3. The RCN are neither pretending to be both.​

I'm certain if DLR 4 could find a way to digitize semaphore flags and telegraphs, they would. Please don't give them any more ideas
