Joint Warrior - Clyde Departures


Today was the day the various naval vessels departed the Clyde as they head out to begin their military exercise.

Some will return for a debrief but most will scatter to the winds when the exercise is complete.

The second exercise is in October this year so we'll look forward to that when the time comes.
