A group of 13 Cadets and 2 Officers were fortunate enough to spend 3 nights on board the HMS Albion, the Royal Navy's Amphibious Forces Flagship, sailing from Liverpool to the ship's home port at Plymouth. This is the 4th time that we have taken cadets onboard HMS Albion and it is always a very popular exercise. Being on a warship at sea is a great experience and the ship's company and the Royal Marines on board are always very welcoming. The cadets were even added to the bridge watch keeper rota and had a chance to take the helm and steer the ship. Other highlights were a live gunnery exercise with the destroyer HMS Manchester and a low level fly past from a RN search and rescue helicopter.

The Worshipful Company of Brewers support HMS Albion which provides us with a link to the ship.
