EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of resilience and camaraderie among the men of HMS Prince Eugene as they work to clear and repair the damaged HMS Vindictive following the Zeebrugge Raid in April 1918. The Arrogant-class protected cruiser, HMS Vindictive, had returned from the daring operation with significant damage to her upperworks, inflicted by enemy gunfire. The crew of HMS Prince Eugene, dressed in their naval uniforms, are seen in the foreground, working diligently to clean up the debris and prepare the damaged ship for repairs. At the center of the image, two men hold a Hay flame gun, a cylindrical weapon used to create intense heat for clearing debris and burning flammable materials. The image exudes a sense of determination and unity among the sailors, as they work together to restore their comrades' ship and keep the Royal Navy's fleet operational in the face of adversity. The photograph was likely taken in the port of Ostend, Belgium, in the months following the raid, which took place on April 23, 1918. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and hard work that went into maintaining the naval forces during World War I.
