Recovering our drill naval mine and conning the dive boat onto a seabed contact. @FOST working us hard as we train our core Mine Warfare role. Lots of leadership and professionalism across the Ship’s Company today. Well done team 👍

Great to work alongside @HMSStAlbans as they continue their @FOST training.
Dressed for the occasion, this meant a busy Thursday for the ship's company as we manoeuvred in close proximity whilst carrying out simulated warfighting and aviation drills.

🌊 Exciting visit for Sea Cadets! 🚢
Sea Cadets had the incredible opportunity to visit HMS ST ALBANS! The experience was filled with hands-on learning, exploring the ship, and gaining insight into life at sea and the start of the ships journey through BOST.
