HM Naval Base Clyde / Keith Hall.

"The Faslane Bay, originally used as a military port in the Second World War, has played host to submarines since 1957, when HMS Adamant, the depot ship of the 3rd Submarine Squadron, first anchored there. Over the years, and particularly once the Clyde submarine base was officially commissioned in 1967, the site has seen periods of rapid expansion to accomodate the growing sophistication of the squadron submarines and the increasing number of hulls utilising the base's facilities. This book traces the development of the base in unsurpassed pictorial detail, from its initial use by the army to October 1996, when the sie was formally designated HM Naval Base Clyde, and onwards through the redevelopments of the twenty-first century."--BACK COVER.
