The mother and fiancée of a sailor onboard the HMS Dragon have told GB News of their pride as they watched the boat finally leave Portsmouth.
Olivia Quinn and Victoria Smith stood and waved off their loved one after not knowing when he would be leaving.
Speaking to GB News' Isabel Feculak, George's mother Victoria said it was a "very bittersweet" moment whilst fiancée Olivia - holding a cuddly dragon - "very proud" of her partner.
HMS Dragon has started its journey towards Cyprus to defend RAF Akrotiri.
The airbase was targeted by an Iranian-made drone on the second day of the Iran war - but the Type 45 Destroyer was unable to be deployed until today.
As it left with more than 200 crew, the British warship, loaded with ammunition, could be seen being pulled along by tug boats through the harbour.
