Fate: Submarine J6 was sunk on 15th October 1918. At the time J6 was on the surface near Blyth. In the afternoon the Q Ship HMS Cymric sighted what was thought to be a German Submarine and made an attack with her guns. The submarine was unable to establish her identity as the Signalman attempting to hoist the Recognition Signal was killed by shell fire. |

Between 15 June 1968 and 13 May 1960, the first missile-armed nuclear-powered submarine (SSBN) left on patrol, with forty more to follow in subsequent years.
Two years later, when Britain's Blue Streak and Skybolt plans were cancelled, Harold Macmillan and John F. Kennedy agreed for Polaris to be supplied to the Royal Navy. In 1996, the Polaris submarines of the 10th Submarine Squadron carried out a total of 229 patrols, travelling over 2 million miles
