EDITORS COMMENTS
This sectional drawing and accompanying photographs from the loss of HMS Courageous, one of the Royal Navy's proud aircraft carriers, serve as a poignant reminder of the brutal realities of war. The image, created by renowned maritime artist G.H. Davis in 1939, depicts the vessel amidst the tumultuous waves of the sea. The cross-section drawing focuses on the midships area, revealing the devastating impact of the torpedo strike that occurred in the boiler room. The immense hangars for aircraft, designed to house and launch the Royal Navy's aviation fleet, lie in ruins below. The photographs below the drawing offer a haunting glimpse into the aftermath of the attack. The once-mighty HMS Courageous, a symbol of British maritime power, lies submerged in the depths of the ocean. The images capture the raw power of the sea as it claims another victim in the ongoing battle of World War II. The loss of HMS Courageous on September 17, 1939, was a significant blow to the Royal Navy. The German submarine U-29, under the command of Kapitänleutnant Fritz-Julius Lemp, delivered the fatal blow, sinking the vessel and taking the lives of 518 crew members. The attack marked the first major loss of a British aircraft carrier during the war and highlighted the growing threat posed by the German U-boat fleet. This powerful image serves as a testament to the sacrifices made during the Second World War and is an essential piece of wartime history. The loss of HMS Courageous remains a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict and the resilience of those who served.
