EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the impressive Gibraltar-based patrol boat, HMS Sabre, as it escorts the Type 23 frigate HMS Monmouth into the bustling Mediterranean port. Serving as an integral part of the Royal Navy Gibraltar Squadron, HMS Sabre and its sister ship, HMS Scimitar, form a formidable core. With just 19 personnel and three Arctic 24 rigid-hulled inflatable boats, this small but mighty team is one of only two permanently deployed sea-going units. While safeguarding Gibraltar's shores remains their primary objective, the dedicated men and women of the Gibraltar Squadron also contribute to joint operations in the region. Additionally, they provide a maritime Quick Reaction Force to support ships in need within their local area while keeping a watchful eye over shipping passing through the strategic Strait of Gibraltar. Notably busy supporting British and NATO exercises in the region alongside other nations' maritime forces, these remarkable crafts are always ready for action. This particular squadron plays an essential role in maintaining security and stability both locally and beyond. As we admire this image of HMS Sabre proudly sailing through Mediterranean waters under clear skies, let us recognize and appreciate the dedication and commitment displayed by those who serve on board. Their unwavering vigilance ensures that our seas remain safe while upholding peace in this vital region.
