The ship is a frequent attendee of [[EasterCon]] as well as conventions local to its patrol area.  
''Joshua'' was commissioned on 16 March 2015 under the command of then [[LCDR]] Neil Simpson. The Joshua was assigned to patrol Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland and to lead on recruitment in these areas. The ship is a frequent attendee of [[EasterCon]] as well as conventions local to its patrol area. After expanding enough to split, Joshua restricted its patrol to Scotland, and a new ship {{gns|Olympus|CL-58}} (CL-58) was formed to take over Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.


The ''Joshua'' is a part of [[DesDiv 413]], which sits under [[DesRon 41]] as a part of 4th Fleet.
