The Silent Service.  The men and women of our Submarine Service who sacrifice so much to spend months on end at sea protecting the UK.  The debt we all owe them cannot be overstated and I was proud to visit HMS Astute this week to thank those on board for their service.

The first working submarine was a leather-covered rowboat invented by Cornelis Drebbel in 1620. Drebbel went on to build two more, with the final one managing to reach depths of 15 feet. #SubmarineArchive #SubmarineFacts #NavyHistory
