My grandfather's ship was refitted at Rosyth in the 1940's before coming to Australia to serve as a boom defence vessel in WWII. It was after his stay here that he decided to imigrate to our beautiful country, bringing his family with him. I have been trying to trace my grandfather's naval history and I am pleased that Rosyth is still used by the navy. It is nice to think that these subs can sit at rest, hopefully never to be used again in war but as a reminder of it, and the Peace that we are lucky to have. The photo fascinates me. Technology is amazing. This was a very important naval base in the UK history.

Perhaps they should cut them up into tiny pieces and send a piece to every taxpayer in the country as a return on their investment.
