From The Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald dated Friday 2nd October 1964

When the submarine HMS "Oberon" was taking part in exercises in the Firth of Clyde on Thursday of last week, one of her ratings was scalded by escaping steam.
The rating was transferred to Ardrossan pilot boat, which brought him ashore where an ambulance was waiting to take him to Ballochmyle Hospital.
