I keep forgetting to comment when they are posted, so I'm one behind, but thanks for the chapters @Mark Arbour.
I wonder, particular after being irritating, what benefits will the government get George?
He just got a title update not long ago, this is still before the proliferation of Orders and he already has Bath (and it's too junior for Garter). He previously already had big frigates, and with the Endymion occupied, plus the peace, it might be difficult to get a good appointment. Hope he gets a frigates still, maybe a small squadron to command, instead of being promoted to 3rd rates, he will die of boredom in a fleet (unless it's the Mediterranean, the Channel, North Sea or Baltic would be a punishment).
