1916 - 11th Flotilla. HMS Titania, Blyth
Badly damaged the German battleships Kronprinz and Grosser Kurfurst on the 5th November 1916 off the West coast of Denmark.
One was out of action for six weeks the other for three months.

On June 1, 1939, the Submarine Thetis sailed out of Liverpool Bay with 103 men on board for diving trials, but on the very first dive it failed to surface, the escape hatch jammed, and help was too slow in coming.
