Summary[edit]

Description
English: HMS Dauntless, the second of the Royal Navy’s new formidable Type 45 destroyers, is pictured in Portsmouth, dressed for her commissioning into the Royal Navy on 3rd June 2010.

Hundreds of guests including families of the 190 ship’s company attended the colourful ‘Christening’ ceremony at Portsmouth Naval Base.

Principal guests were Lady Mary Burnell-Nugent – the ship’s sponsor who launched the ship at BAE Systems’ Govan shipyard in Glasgow in January 2007 – and Commander-In-Chief Fleet Admiral Sir Trevor Soar. The ceremony was conducted by the Venerable John Green, Chaplain to the Fleet.

Lady Burnell-Nugent inspected some of the crew on parade and also the Band of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines, Collingwood which provided musical accompaniment for the hour-long ceremony.
