EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the First World War, the British submarine HMS C25 is seen bravely defending itself against an aerial attack. Launched in 1909, HMS C25 was one of the earliest submarines to see action in the Great War, and this photograph captures a pivotal moment in its history. The year is 1914-1918, and the backdrop of the sea is filled with the chaos of war. The surface of the water is dotted with the telltale signs of conflict: the masts and sails of ships, the plumes of smoke from explosions, and the telltale trails of torpedoes. Amidst this turmoil, HMS C25 stands out, its dark hull submerged just below the waves, its periscope breaking the surface as it scans the area for enemy targets. Suddenly, the stillness is shattered as an enemy aircraft appears in the sky above. The submarine's crew quickly react, bringing up their anti-aircraft guns and opening fire. The photograph captures the intense action as tracer bullets fill the air, arcing towards the plane and exploding in a shower of sparks. The plane, undeterred, continues its attack, dropping bombs that detonate with a loud underwater explosion. Despite the intensity of the attack, HMS C25 holds its ground, its crew determined to protect their vessel and contribute to the Allied war effort. This photograph is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the submarine crews who fought during the First World War, and the innovative ways in which they adapted to the challenges of modern warfare. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal period in history, and the importance of preserving the memories of those who served. This photograph, from the extensive collection of historical images available at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the First World War and the role of submarines in naval warfare.
