Lieutenant DOyly-Hughes Brought In To His Ship On His Return From His Exploit.


Lieutenant DOyly-Hughes Brought In To His Ship On His Return From His Exploit.

When he reached the beach, Lieutenant DOyly-Hughes plunged into the seas in his clothes and swam out to where he expected his ship to be. It had moved, however, and he was compelled to return and hide on the shore. At dawn he left everything behind and swam along the hopes of finding the ship, blowing his whistle at intervals to announce his whereabouts. On rounding a cliff he observed what he thought were Turkish boats making out from shore towards him. He immediately made for the beach again, where he discovered that the cause of his fears was his own ship. A last short swim, exhausted though he was, brought to safety among his men.

D for Donald of 270 squadron, Royal Air Force, out of Freetown, West Africa operating in the Atlantic Ocean. It was during routine operation search that D for Donald surprised U515 on the surface and immediately attacked the submarine. U515 in putting up stiff resistance blew a large hole in the hull of D for Donald and the magazine of the starboard side 0.5 twin Browning was hit and the subsequent shrapnel wounded both blister gunners. U515 escaped but was sunk by an American naval hunter group a year later. D for Donald limped back to base and managed to make the beach before it would sink completely.

Half Price! - £2700.00 		Midday, 21st October 1805, and Admiral Collingwoods flagship, the 100-gun HMS Royal Sovereign, breaks the allied line and delivers a shattering broadside on the Spanish flagship Santa Anna. Making great speed, Collingwoods ship had breached the Franco-Spanish line some distance ahead of the rest of his van and the Royal Sovereign suffered heavily as she quickly drew the attentions of three French and three Spanish ships. To her starboard, the French Indomitable can be seen firing into the British flagship while, astern of the Santa Anna, Belleisle and Fougueux are engaging ahead of Mars, Monarca and Pluton.
