DATELINE: FASLANE, SCOTLAND
Once a top secret, then a prime target of peace demonstrators, now simply obsolete: Britain's last Polaris submarine came home for good Monday.
With two pipers standing on the hull playing ``Auld Lang Syne,'' the HMS Repulse pulled into Faslane, a western Scotland base.
The subs have been replaced by more potent Trident nuclear subs bought from the United States.
