The HMS Kelly British K-class
destroyer
L' HMS Kelly era un cacciatorpediniere Britannico della Classe K, costruito a Hebburn-on-Tyne nei cantieri Hawthorn Leslie & Co. nel corso del 1937, e varato nel 1938. . On December 14, 1939, just after she was completed, the HMS Kelly collided with a floating mine, laid by German destroyers off the Estuary of Tyne: the hull was severely damaged. Il 14 Dicembre 1939, appena dopo aver completato l'allestimento, l' HMS Kelly entrò in collisione con una mina galleggiante, deposta da cacciatorpediniere Tedeschi nell'estuario del Tyne: lo scafo fu seriamente dannegiato. On May 23, 1941, the HMS
Kelly was spotted and attacked by a German Junkers Ju-88 bomber. Il 23 Maggio 1941, l' HMS
Kelly fu avvistato ed attaccato da un bombardiere Tedesco Junkers Ju
88. The Commander of the HMS Kelly was Lord Louis Mountbatten: he later became the Commander of Combined Operations (the Commandos), and after the end of the II World War, he was the last British Viceroy of India before the independence. Il Comandante dell' HMS
Kelly era Lord Louis Mountbatten: più tardi divenne Capo delle
Combined Operations (i Commandos), e dopo la fine della II Guerra Mondiale
fu l'ultimo Vicerè Britannico dell'India prima dell'Indipendenza. |
