FS Dixmude (L 9015):
 
In January 2013, Dixmude took part in Operation Serval, ferrying elements of the 92. Régiment d’Infanterie to Mali.

In April 2016, it was announced she would be part of the Anglo-French CJEX.

In July 2018, the ship docked in Haifa port, Israel for a joint exercise with the Israeli Navy.

In April 2020, the ship operated as part of a joint British, French and Dutch naval task force in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, in overseas territories in the Caribbean. RFA Argus was also present as the UK's commitment to supporting British Overseas Territories with Merlins and Wildcats along with HMS Medway as the Caribbean guard ship.

 
The Battle of Dixmude:
 
The Fusiliers Marins ("Naval Fusiliers") are specialized French naval infantry trained for combat in land and coastal regions. The Fusiliers Marins are also in charge of providing protection for naval vessels and key French Navy sites on land.

The Battle of the Yser (French: Bataille de l'Yser, Dutch: Slag om de IJzer) was a battle of World War I that took place in October 1914 between the towns on Nieuwpoort and Diksmuide, along a 35-kilometre (22 mi) stretch of the Yser River and the Yperlee Canal, in Belgium. The front line was held by a large Belgian force, which halted the German advance in a costly defensive battle. The Allied victory at the Yser stopped the German advance into the last corner of unoccupied Belgium, but the German army was still left in control of 95 percent of Belgian territory.
