  • National Chairman, the Merchant Navy Association
    Message from Captain John Sail - National Chairman, The Merchant Navy Association ‘Battle’s Over’ offers a wonderful opportunity to both record and remember what was endured and forgiven but not forgotten. John Sail Capt J M R Sail MNM MNI During the First World War attacks on merchant ships MNA National Chairman began slowly as the enemy sought to blockade Great Britain. In 1914 and 1915 a total of 342 ships and nearly 2,500 men, women and boys lost their lives with more being injured. During 1916 alone 396 ships and 1,217 seafarers lost their lives and if it were not for the introduction of the Convoy System, in 1917, many more merchant ships and their crews would have been lost and very likely the war as well. The Battle of the Atlantic was one of the most significant battles of that war and for the seafaring communities across the UK and overseas. We will remember them all now their ‘Battle is Over”. His Majesty’s Hospital Ship (HMHS) Britannic (below) was launched just before the start of the First World War and was laid up at her builders, Harland and Wolff, in Belfast for many months before being put to use as a hospital ship in 1915. She was shaken by an explosion, caused by a naval mine, off the Greek island of Kea on the morning of 21 November 1916, and sank 55 minutes later, killing 30 people. There were 1,065 people on board; the 1,035 survivors were rescued from the water and from lifeboats.
