11th Flotilla. Blyth.
Lost during a storm in November 1921 as it was being taken away for scrap, the wreck of G3 came to rest under cliffs at Buckton, between Speeton and Bempton, in East Yorkshire. According to Scarborough Maritime Heritage Centre (SMHC), valuable parts of the wreckage were salvaged by an insurance company, with the remainder blown up in 1940 as it was found it could have been used as a landmark for invaders in World War Two.
How the British navy hid the heroic voyage of crippled second world war submarine HMS Triumph.
In September 1941 the British press enthralled its readers with a story of naval heroism that the public, battered by German bombing and strict rationing, was crying out for: a tale of survival against the odds.
My research involves looking at how the British media covered the second world war. When I came across this story, I was struck by the way in which the navy kept the it quiet for nearly two years.
An Angry Crowd swarms around a small prison. Inside General Sajid Khan stares stoically at his captors. Responsible for genocide and the mass murder of thousands of people, the deposed Warlord is being held unil trial.
The guards scramble but Khan remains calm. One week later Naval Headquarters are told that there's an explosion on an Australian Cruise Ship. This is the second attack and no one knows who is responsible, although Kahn goes missing.
Captain Will Hanley discovers that Kahn has spent his considerable fortune on a renovated Russian Submarine, complete with nuclear missiles which he plans to launch at a city untouched by terrorism, Los Angeles.
Hanley manages to find Khan but the action culmintes in an explosive battle alongside a dangerous reef, where failure will have an unbearable cost.
