fallenphoenix1986 603 Posted June 28, 2012 (edited) Saw this over at SOH and thought some of you may be interested. Looks a tad beat up outside, inside its like the crew just left. http://www.telegraph...#?frame=2248412 Craig Edited June 28, 2012 by fallenphoenix1986 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B52STRATO 215 Posted June 29, 2012 A great tribute to the crew and those who served in each camp. It's a shame to let the frigate in such a state (outside). A budget problem ? As this is what affects most floating museums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fallenphoenix1986 603 Posted June 29, 2012 Sadly from what I gather she's on her way to the Gillete factory. There was an attempt to get her moored permanently in Portsmouth however it fell through. Craig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B52STRATO 215 Posted June 29, 2012 This is unfortunately what seems to be for the ships of each of our museums in Europe... I had the chance to embark a time aboard the AA cruiser Colbert, which was docked in the port of Bordeaux. He now rotten in Brittany... with two destroyers wrecks on her sides...
