Prihvaćeno: 29.I.2009. Sažetak Na Jadranu su se tijekom dva svjetska rata odigrali brojni sukobi, te se stoga, posebice u Kvarneriću, na morskom dnu nalaze brojne olupine, od kojih su neke tek nedavno otkrivene i posjećene. Ova radnja prikazuje povijest dva torpedna napada talijanskih podmornica na austrougarske trgovačke brodove tijekom Prvoga svjetskog rata, uništenje jedne njemačke bojevne skupine u sukobu s britanskim razaračima u jesen 1944. godine, te gubitak jednog britanskog razarača nakon što je naišao na minu kod Paga. Na osnovi roniteljskih izvještaja i povijesnih podataka u dostupnoj literaturi bilo je moguće rekon- struirati zbivanja i utvrditi točan identitet olupina. Ključne riječi: Jadran, Kvarnerić, Pag, ronjenje, brodske olupine, Prvi svjetski rat, Drugi sv- jetski rat, podmornički rat, razarači, torpiljarke, korvete, potopljeni trgovački brodovi UVOD Tijekom dva svjetska rata na Jadranu se nisu odigravale velike pomorske bitke kao na drugim bojišnicama, poput sredozemne, atlantske i tihooceanske, ali se u hrvatskom podmorju ipak nalazi puno olupina brodova potopljenih u ratu, posebice u Kvarneriću uz zapadnu obalu Paga. Ta skupina brodova poznata je u međunarodnim ronilačkim krugovima pod nadimkom “Sablasna paška flota“, po uzoru na “Ghost Fleet of the Truk Lagoon“ - brojne olupine japanskih brodova u laguni otoka Truk na Tihom oceanu.
