Meeting aboard HMS Dragon in Portsmouth, Chairman Huw Thomas and Commander Darren Houston RN conclude an affiliation agreement between Welsh Motoring Writers and one of the Royal Navy's latest and most technologically advanced ships.
The 14th Royal Navy vessel to bear the name, the new destroyer reflects a heritage dating back through some of the greatest years in naval history to 1647 and the first HMS Dragon - a frigate from Chatham's Royal Dockyard in 1647.
At launch in 2008 the latest vessel bore the Red Dragon on her bow - one on each side and held on to them throughout her sea trials last year.
