| The following has kindly been
sent in by Royal Marine Alyn Lloyd.
Following a final engagement shelling Cecembre (I am aware
spelling is incorrect), the ship sailed to Scotland and anchored
broadside at the end of the loch. A detachment of Royal Marines stayed
in pairs in buildings which overlooked the loch, all other crew were
returned to Division by train. At a precise time we had the duty of
herding the inhabitants to a station of our choice from which the loch
could not be overlooked. In this respect the Scots were understanding,
co-operative and kind. At this time the Wellingtons flew into the loch
and dropped bouncing bombs (dead weight, no explosives). These, or at
least some of them went through the ship, in at one side and out the
other. Even after the first of several days of these exercises we
returned to a wreck. We eventually departed a hulk and returned to
Portsmouth by train. |

 | HMS Barham leads the 5th Battle Squadon at Jutland by Anthony Saunders.
The greatest naval battle of the First World War took place on the 31st of May and the 1st of June 1916, near the Danish province of Jutland. It was the first and only sea battle between the British and German fleets, and certainly proved to be the clash of the Titans that the First Lord of the Admiralty, Winston Churchill, had long planned. Decisive victory was claimed by both sides, but, desperately fought though it was, the outcome was indecisive. The Royal Navy suffered higher losses in both men and ships, but the German fleet never ventured out of harbour to seek battle again. During the daylight fighting HMS Barham, under Rear Admiral Evan-Thomas, lead the 5th Battle Squadron (Valiant, Warspite and Malaya) and is seen here at 4.50pm exchanging with Hippers battle-cruisers to the south. |
