Admiral Horatio Nelson's bold tactics destroyed the combined French and Spanish fleet, securing British naval supremacy for over a century. Nelson was mortally wounded during the battle but lived long enough to know he had won. His famous signal, 'England expects that every man will do his duty,' became an enduring symbol of British naval tradition.
