You heard it here first: We hear that the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) could stage an Appreciation Ceremony of sorts for the hulk of the former RSS Resolution (L204), a tank landing ship (LST) that was decommissioned decades ago. The ceremony could be held next Tuesday (22 Oct) at Tuas Naval Base, where the ship is berthed, prior to a date with the scrapyard.
The former Resolution is the last example of a warship from the early days of Singapore's navy.
In November 2021, RSN veterans launched a campaign to preserve the decommissioned LST as a museum exhibit. This was turned down in January 2022.
Bon voyage former Reso. We will miss you dearly.
