As the MV Boudicca emerges into the Solent it will be met by a flotilla of Royal Navy vessels – with sailors lining the decks in salute to pay their respects, while a lone Spitfire flies overhead.

The Defence Secretary and the First Sea Lord will join her on the deck to watch the historic sail-past.
