  • Remni May 27 2020
    remembrance ni 27 May - Majestic and Princess Irene lost in 1915. Operation Dynamo at Dunkirk continues. Hunt for Bismarck in 1941 Battleship HMS Majestic was torpedoed and sunk by German submarine U-21 off Cape Helles, Dardanelles. 49 of her crew died. Four were from Northern Ireland. Nine from NI were lost in Princess Irene. Page 1 HMS Majestic. HMS Majestic was a battleship and the lead ship of the Majestic class. She served as the flagship of the Channel Squadron from commissioning for eight years whence she went in and out of reserve until WW1. She was relegated to secondary duties when recommissioned and for the Dardanelles Campaign she was despatched as a mine clearer. On 27 May Majestic was anchored inshore amongst transports and escorts when a periscope was sighted 400 yards away and a torpedo wake streaming through a gap in the nearby ships. Despite her anti-torpedo nets being out, the torpedo fired by U.21 passed straight through the heavy mesh and hit her amidships. It was followed by another one and within seven minutes Majestic, betraying the lack of internal torpedo protection common to her generation, capsized. Forty nine men were killed, mostly by the exploding torpedoes, and the upturned ship rested on the remains of her masts for months, her keel protruding above the water, until at the end of 1915 they collapsed and she sank beneath the waves.

  • Brytyjskie Lotnictwo W Rejonie Dardaneli W 1915 Roku
    Humanities and Social Sciences 2018 HSS, vol. XXIII, 25 (1/2018), p. 49-69 January-March Paweł KORZENIOWSKI 1 BRYTYJSKIE LOTNICTWO W REJONIE DARDANELI W 1915 ROKU Walki w rejonie Dardaneli i na Półwyspie Gallipoli toczyły si ę niemal przez cały rok 1915. Operacja, planowana pocz ątkowo jako samodzielne przedsi ęwzi ęcie floty, miało zako ńczy ć si ę szybkim wyeliminowaniem Imperium Osma ńskiego z wojny. Jednak że działania sił nawodnych okazały si ę nieskuteczne, a atak przeprowadzony w dniu 18 marca 1915 roku kosztował Aliantów utrat ę trzech okr ętów liniowych. Niech ęć do przyznania si ę do pora żki spowodowała podj ęci decyzji o rozpocz ęciu operacji l ądowej i wysadzenie desantu na Pół- wyspie Gallipoli. Była to pierwsza w nowoczesnej wojnie operacja desantowa na wybrze że bronione przez nieprzyjaciela. L ądowanie przeprowadzone w dniu 25 kwietnia 1915 roku za- ko ńczyło si ę zdobyciem przyczółków, ale nie zdołano opanowa ć kluczowych punktów na półwyspie. Tak że podejmowane w kolejnych miesi ącach operacje zako ńczyły si ę niepowo- dzeniem, a zbli żaj ąca si ę zima zmusiła wycofanie sił alianckich na przełomie 1915/1916 roku. W walkach w rejonie Dardaneli, zarówno marynarka wojenna, jak i wojska l ądowe wspierane były przez lotnictwo. Jednostki lotnicze obejmowały dwa okr ęty-bazy wodnosamolotów – HMS Ark Royal oraz HMS Ben-my-Chree, oraz dwie eskadry Royal Naval Air Service – 2. oraz 3. Ponadto na korzy ść kontyngensu francuskiego działała 98. Eskadra Lotnicza (l’Esca- drille MF 98 T). W czasie analizowanych miesi ęcy, lotnictwo alianckie bardzo mocno anga żowało si ę w pro- wadzone działania, zarówno morskie jak i l ądowe.

    HARRIS , BENJAMIN JAMES Nationality: United Kingdom Rank: Shipwright H. M. Dockyard : Sheerness (H.M.S. "Princess Irene"). Date of Death: 27/05/1915 The 1901 Census shows Benjamin Harris aged 19 born Rowhedge living at East Donyland by trade he was a Shipwright Apprentice. He was the brother-in-law of Herbert Cousins. He moved with his family to work in the Sheerness Royal Naval Dockyard when there was a fire at the Rowhedge Works, which put many of the local men out of work. His brother Fred resettled in Toronto, Canada, as a result of the same fire. Ben was married with a son , Arthur. HMS Princess Irene. She had been a Canadian Pacific steamship taken over by the Admiralty At about 11.14 on the morning of 27th May 1915, Sheerness witnessed the destruction of the minelayer HMS Princess Irene which was on No.28 buoy about 3 miles WSW from the town centre. The ship had been built in Scotland in the previous year to the order of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company but was requisitioned and converted for Naval use before she could sail to the Pacific. The Princess Irene had a complement of 225 officers and men, three of whom were ashore that morning as the mines were being primed on the ship's two mine decks. Also on board were a party of 80 or so Petty Officers from Chatham in addition to 76 Sheerness Dockyard workers who were completing tasks prior to the ship's planned departure to lay her mines on 29th May.

    To sign on to this letter as an individual with ties to UW: https://bit.ly/DecrimUWind To sign on to this statement on behalf of an organization (RSO, academic unit, etc) , please go to: https://bit.ly/DecrimUWorg Decriminalize UW #GeorgeFloyd #CharleenaLyles #JTWilliams #TommyLe #ShaunFuhr #MannyEllis As members of the University of Washington (Seattle) community, we call on President Ana Mari Cauce and Provost Mark Richards to take immediate action to ensure the health and safety of people on campus, particularly Black and other persons of color, by protecting them from police violence by 1) the Seattle Police Department and 2) the UW Police Department. The national Movement For Black Lives has given the UW community an invitation to uphold our values of justice, equity, and anti-racism, and immediately divest from the Seattle Police Department (SPD) to protect our Black community members. In 2011, The US Department of Justice investigated SPD and found a pattern of excessive and unconstitutional force, which forced the City into a consent decree. The City is seeking to be released from the agreement despite repeated lack of accountability for police killings of Black residents -- most recently, Charleena Lyles and Shaun Fuhr.1 We bear witness to the ongoing harms that police violence enacts against Black lives. In the interests of public health and safety, we call on the University of Washington to divest from and cease any contracts with the Seattle Police Department. Specifically, we call on UW to break all ties (both informal and formal in the form of contracts, agreements, and MOUs) with Seattle Police Department by taking the following steps: 1) Immediately stop handing over people detained by UW Police Department to SPD custody.2 1 This statement was correct when the petition launched on June 2, 2020.

  • Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017
    Medway Heritage Asset Review 2017 Final Draft: November 2017 Executive Summary The Medway Heritage Asset Review intends to provide a comprehensive overview of the heritage assets in Medway in order to inform the development of a Heritage Strategy to support the emerging Medway Local Plan 2015. Medway benefits from a rich heritage spanning millennia, underpinning the local distinctiveness and creating a unique and special character that can be readily interpreted through the historic environment. The main report is broken down into sections, initially looking at the topography of Medway and how this influenced human settlement in the area, then looking at the development of the key settlements in Medway; taking into consideration the key drivers for their establishment and identifying existing heritage assets. Furthermore, the main influences to development in the area are also considered; including Chatham Dockyard and the military, the brick, cement and lime industry, agriculture, maritime and religion. Through investigating Medway’s history both geographically and thematically, the significance of heritage assets and the importance of historic landscapes can be readily identified; enabling a better understanding and providing opportunities to enhance their enjoyment. Non-designated heritage assets are also identified using a broad range of sources; providing a deeper knowledge of what shapes the distinct local character experienced in Medway and the how this identity is of great importance to the local community. The report concludes with suggestions for additional areas of research and identifies themes to be considered to inform the development of a coherent and robust Heritage Strategy that will help enhance, understand and celebrate Medway’s heritage for years to come.
