HMS Scylla (F71)
HMS ''Scylla'' was a ''Leander''-class frigate of the Royal Navy. She was built at Devonport Royal Dockyard and was the last RN frigate to be built at the Dockyard so far. ''Scylla'' was launched in August 1968 and commissioned in 1970. It was the start of a long and eventful career that ended with her sinking as an artificial reef in 2004.
==1970s==
She came into to the public limelight in 1973 when she collided with the Torpoint ferry in fog during her very first movement, following a refit, "full astern" being only the second engine room order from alongside; it was rather unexpected!
That same year, ''Scylla'' took part in the Second Cod War during the fishing dispute with Iceland. She performed patrols against harassment on fishing boats by any Icelandic vessels. During that conflict, ''Scylla'' was rammed by the Icelandic gunboat ''Aegir'', a vessel that took part in a number of incidents with British vessels over the years.
In 1975, ''Scylla'' was again in action against Iceland during the Third Cod War due to further fishing disputes. She once again patrolled against harassment to British fishing trawlers by Icelandic gunboats and other vessels. In 1976, ''Scylla'' performed royal escort duties, and the following year took part in the Queen's Silver Jubilee celebrations, taking part in the Fleet Review at Spithead. During that review ''Scylla'' was placed in between HMS ''Berwick'' and her sister-ship HMS ''Euryalus''.〔Official Souvenir Programme, 1977. ''Silver Jubilee Fleet Review'', HMSO〕
