Addendum to the 2025 Agm and reunion
Running alongside HMS Lincoln
The previous two reunions were held alongside HMS Arathusa.
This year we will be having our Annual Reunion alongside HMS Lincoln.
We had a really good time with the Royal Navy guys and I dont see this year being any different.
Hope to see you there in October.
HMS Lincoln (F99) was a Salisbury-class or Type 61 aircraft direction frigate of the Royal Navy.
She was built by Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company in Govan on the River Clyde. The ship was laid down in 1955, launched 6 April 1959, and completed 7 July 1960. She was named after the city of Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
