An absolute privilege to #Chair the @Seafarers_KGFS Annual Meeting yesterday. Thank you to new Vice President @Nus_Ghani for powerful words on #seafarer #mentalhealth. Grateful for support of our President Prince Edward @RoyalFamily and new VP @CityWestminster Lord Mayor.

For the first time EVER, there will be no dark blue uniform amongst the 6 Chiefs in @DefenceHQ. A naval officer has been 1SL since the post was created in 1689 and titled Senior Naval Lord. Does this mean the next VCDS is likely to be dark blue?? 🤷🏻♂️ 3 x Army; 2 x RAF; 1 x RM.
🚨 Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton has been picked as the next Chief of Defence Staff He beat Roly Walker to the job A career engineer, with a 1st Class degree from Cambridge, Knighton was the first non-pilot to lead the RAF He will now command all 3 services via MSHQ

East of Suez we go... #RoyalNavy flagship @HMSPWLS starts the next stage of her global mission after safe passage through the Suez Canal and Red Sea flanked by escort warships. #CSG25
On this day in 1982, SS Atlantic Conveyor was struck by two Exocet missiles with the loss of 12 lives - she then sunk under tow three days later. Each year, Islanders gather at the Atlantic Conveyor Memorial in the Falklands to remember her crew’s service. 🇫🇰🇬🇧 #Falklands43
.@HMSPWLS passed through the Suez Canal yesterday. @HMSDauntless ahead of her with @HMS_Richmond astern. Followed by 🇳🇴HNoMS Roald Amundsen,🇨🇦 HMCS Ville De Québec, 🇳🇴HNoMS Maud and 🇪🇸ESPS Méndez Núñez. Carrier Strike Group now in the Red Sea #CSG25

General Jenkins’ appointment as 1SL reflects a Corps which is bound even more tightly to how the Royal Navy thinks, operates & fights. He has the instincts & ambition needed to drive the Navy’s modernisation, ensuring it can continue to safeguard our security & prosperity.
The Defence Secretary has confirmed that His Majesty The King has approved the new appointment of General Sir Gwyn Jenkins as First Sea Lord and Chief of the Naval Staff. 🔗: gov.uk/government/new…
