EDINBURGH Done – the Type 42 Destroyer EDINBURGH has bowed out of active service and has returned to Portsmouth after a last six month deployment.   The Fortress of the Sea (as ship was known) is the last Type 42 Destroyer in Royal Navy service.     Still to come is a farewell tour of the UK, with visits to her namesake city and Liverpool planned before decommissioning in June 2013.
