PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
HMS INVINCIBLE (4 March 1998)
Motion Details
That this House notes the valuable contribution made by the service personnel of HMS 'Invincible' during the Gulf crises; notes that the Captain and ship's company have served far beyond their normal tour of duty and missed their planned Christmas in the United Kingdom at short notice; and urges the Secretary of State for Defence to offer full recognition for the enduring work of the men and women of HMS 'Invincible' when they finally return to Portsmouth.
