[edit]DescriptionWelcoming Home HMS Lancaster MOD 45156484.jpg |
English: A well wisher welcomes home Type 23 frigate HMS Lancaster back to Portsmouth following the ship's successful deployment to the North Atlantic and Caribbean.
Portsmouth-based warship HMS Lancaster returned home to the cheers of hundreds of loved ones in Portsmouth in December 2013. The Type 23 frigate spent seven months in the region, seizing drugs with a total street value of £160m. During six raids the ship intercepted 1.2 tonnes of cocaine and almost 1.5 tonnes of cannabis. Lancaster also detained 23 drug-runners and disrupted a sizeable amount of drugs which were ditched in the sea. Crew stepped off the ship carrying red roses for family and friends reflecting the ships connection with the namesake town of Lancaster. The red rose of Lancaster is the County flower of Lancashire. Since leaving the UK in May, Lancaster has clocked up over 30,000 miles and made 20 port visits to 18 countries. She visited all six of the British Overseas Territories in the region, starting with Bermuda and ending with Montserrat, as well as Commonwealth states such as Jamaica, Belize and Barbados. She also stopped off at a number of other islands in the area such as Dutch Curacao, French Martinique, as well as visiting the South American country of Columbia.
