The Live Bait Squadron: the sinking of the HMS Aboukir, Hogue and Cressy 22 September 1914

What a great story to learn about your namesake. A 15 year old lad, acting midshipman no less, dies attempting to save another Sailor. After having a second ship sunk beneath him in a day.

Watching this, I was struck at how Duncan's death still affected his family a hundred years on.

I am saddened they allow salvaging of these warship graves.

Talk about a perfect storm and a rookie mistake with a bunch of rookies on board Brother Dale
