| HMS Oxley was torpedoed, in error, by HMS Triton (Lieutenant Commander Hugh Patrick de Crecy Steel, Royal Navy) in the North Sea (off Norway) on Sunday 10th September 1939. HMS Oxley had accidentally strayed into the patrol area allocated to HMS Triton and had failed, for various reasons to respond to challenges. The Submarine Crew included a large proportion of Reservists, some of whom had served in Submarines in WWI, had only just been recalled for further Active Service. There were only two survivors – the Commanding Officer Lt Cdr Harold Godfrey Bowerman and Able Seaman Herbert Gluckes C/J105279 | |
When the nuclear-powered submarine - Tiger Shark - sets out to investigate a baffling series of naval disasters near the Arctic Circle, its fearless crew quickly find themselves besieged by electrical storms, under attack from an unidentified floating saucer, and in the grip of hairy tentacles in this superb science-fiction potboiler from the golden age of Sci-Fi!
