We were honoured with a very special send off:
Her Majesty The Queen was briefed on our plan by Commodore Moorhouse - and met the sailors, marines and aviators who will make it happen on her behalf.

The Captain officially opened the HMS Queen Elizabeth coffee shop: "the Haven". ☕
For those that want to relax after the last watch or perk themselves up for the next!
Thanks to the NAAFI staff who have helped to facilitate this.

A warm welcome to @820NAS , great to have you on board.
820 bring with them the wizardry 🧙♂️ of the Merlin Mk2, with the addition of the new Crowsnest airborne surveillance system.
The last time we had a Crow's nest on board a navy ship, it was on top of a mast!

Have a good weekend everyone!
As most of the UK starts to wind down, we continue to load #F35 stores onboard, with the Commodore of the UK Carrier Strike Group's pennant flying.

Our aft island (built at Scotstoun) & Lower Blocks 3 & 4 (built at Govan) have now brought the whole Ship back to the Firth of Clyde.
We will spend the next period at Glenmallan filling up for #CSG21.
Always a pleasure coming back to our roots.

Yesterday we paused to pay our respects to the 379 @RoyalNavy Shipmates who died onboard HMS DASHER (D37) 27 March 1943.
As the Ship stopped over the wreck , we fell silent and remembered.
