HMS Spey was officially commissioned into service during a special ceremony in Invergordon, which included a fly-over by RAF Poseidon’s crew and performances from the Royal Marine Band.
The 45-strong crew paraded at the event, before the P&J was given a very special tour of the 265ft vessel on what Commanding Officer Lieutenant Commander Ben Evens described as a “proud day”.
