HMS
H42
(1917
-
1922)
HMS H42 (Lt D Sealey) was conducting spring exercises off Gibraltar when she surfaced 120 feet ahead of the destroyer HMS VERSATILE which was steaming at 20 knots on passage for the UK. H42 was too close to allow the destroyer to take effective avoiding action and she struck the submarine, almost cutting her in two. The submarine was lost with All Hands.
