I was honoured to welcome home our submariners and meet their families. Their quiet professionalism delivering the UK’s Continuous At Sea Deterrent without pause is inspirational.
My thanks to all who serve, above and below the surface. 🇬🇧⚓️

Yesterday I visited @HMNBClyde with @ChiefDefNuclear to see progress in action to deliver the Submarine Maintenance Recovery plan.
The nuclear deterrent is my number one priority and that is a whole force effort.
