Well done to the members of ETWS 2506 on successfully completing Phase 2 training. Their hard work, technical skill and professionalism now set the foundation for the next stage of their careers supporting the Royal Navy in operations across the Fleet. Well deserved success.

In 2005 the MOD signed an agreement to sell 3 Type 23 Frigates to Chile. HMS NORFOLK, MARLBOROUGH & GRAFTON still serve today as Almirante Cochrane, Condell and Lynch. The RN retains 7 of the original class of 16. @HMSStAlbans being the last frigate to be commissioned in 2002.
