Show for HMS Montrose
May 14, 2019
HMS Montrose was the the latest Royal Navy ship to enjoy a morale-boosting show from The British Forces Foundation.
The hugely popular event took place in Bahrain at the Naval Support Facility while the ship was in dock.
The ship’s company were treated to top quality comedy and music courtesy of Craig Campbell, Kev Orkian, Paul Tonkinson and Ben Heathcote.
“For many of the crew this was their first BFF show, and while I’ve had the pleasure of a few, it was great to see them enjoying themselves as much as they did,” said Commanding Officer HMS Montrose Ollie Hucker.
“With Montrose being forward deployed to the region for three years, members of my Ship’s Company are already asking when the next one is; praise indeed!
“I therefore look forward to working with BFF in the future as you continue to support us, and indeed all our deployed Serevice personnel, so brilliantly.”
