RN:
HMS Cossack in the "Altmark Incident" (Feb, 1940), by Anthony Cowland
HMS Martin underway. date unknown
HMS Martin was an M-class destroyer launched at the Tyneside yard of Vickers-Armstrongs on 12 December 1940. She had a busy but brief wartime career, being sunk by the German submarine U-431 on 10 November 1942 off Algiers.
Martin was allocated to the escort group for Force "H" in Operation “Torch”, the landings in North Africa. She sailed from Scapa Flow on 30 October as part of the escort for Force "H", and after fuelling at Gibraltar on 5 November re-joined Force "H"- the covering force to the landings at Algiers and Oran, on 8 November. The task of Force "H" was to guard against action by the Italian fleet, during the landings. Martin was torpedoed by U-431 under command of Wilhelm Dommes on the morning of 10 November as a result of which she blew up and sank in position 37°53′N 003°57′E. The only survivors were five officers and 59 ratings picked up by the destroyer Quentin.
Hunt class destroyer HMS Haydon carrying out depth charge exercises off Mers-El-Kebir. January 1943
Built as part of the Hunt class third group, Haydon would initially serve as a convoy escort in the Atlantic. In 1943 she would be redeployed to the Mediterranean to assist in the Allied Landings at Sicily and Southern France before being put back on convoy protection duty.
She would be pulled from service in 1947 due to a fire on board and eventually disposed of in 1958.
