Royal Navy ice patrol ship HMS Endurance was in service from 1967 to 1991.
She was involved in the Falklands War in 1982, with the final surrender taking place onboard.
HMS Endurance was originally built in Germany in 1956, but the UK bought her in 1967 having Harland & Wolff convert her for use in our Royal Navy.
She was then commissioned as HMS Endurance, being named after the sailing ship that took the explorer Ernest Shackleton's expedition to the Antarctic in 1914.
