A Lull Whilst Coaling: HMS Marlborough at Moda, Sea of Marmara, Istanbul, Turkey, 1923 This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for the crew of HMS Marlborough as they refuel with coal alongside Moda, on the shores of the Sea of Marmara in Istanbul, Turkey. The year is 1923, and the British Iron Duke-class battleship is part of the Mediterranean Fleet. The image portrays the hot and gritty reality of coaling at sea, a laborious and essential process for powering the ship's engines. The crew members, dressed in their navy uniforms, work diligently to transfer coal from the shore to the ship's bunkers. Sweat glistens on their brows, and soot covers their faces, a testament to the physical demands of their task. In the background, the hulking form of HMS Marlborough looms, its smokestacks billowing plumes of steam into the sky. The tranquil waters of the Sea of Marmara provide a striking contrast to the industrious scene on the ship. The Turkish coastline, with its picturesque Moda district, can be seen in the distance. The blend of the modern British warship and the traditional Turkish landscape underscores the global reach and influence of the Royal Navy during the 1920s. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the crew of HMS Marlborough and the logistical challenges of maintaining a battleship in the Mediterranean Fleet during the interwar period. The image is a poignant reminder of the hard work, grit, and determination required to keep the ship operational and ready for action.
