RN:
Future Arethusa-class light cruiser HMS Penelope, Harland & Wolff shipyard, Belfast, Northern Ireland, July 21, 1936
Penelope was holed both forward and aft by near-misses during air attacks on Malta on 26 March 1942. While in the island, she was docked and repaired at the Malta Dry Docks. Day after day she was attacked by German aircraft and the crew worked to fix a myriad of shrapnel holes, so many that she was nicknamed HMS Pepperpot; when these had been plugged with long pieces of wood, HMS Porcupine.
On 18 February 1944, Penelope, under the command of George Devereux Belben, was leaving Naples to return to the Anzio area when she was torpedoed by the German submarine U-410 under the command of Horst-Arno Fenski. A torpedo struck her in the aft engine room and was followed sixteen minutes later by another torpedo that hit in the aft boiler room, causing her to immediately begin sinking; 417 of the crew, including the captain, went down with the ship, with only 206 survivors.

The first Finnish-led maritime exercise Freezing Winds 23 since Finland’s
accession into NATO came to an end. FRWI23 was conducted in the Gulf of Finland, Archipelago Sea, and off the southern coast of Finland.
“This is not the first time we have participated in an exercise on this scale,” Commander, SNMCMG1 Polish Navy Commander Piotr Bartosewicz said. “There was nothing unusual about it. However, the conditions in which we conducted the operation were unique. Winter season, temperatures much below zero, and the Archipelago Sea with thousands of islands and rocks - those were the challenges we had to face. Exercise Freezing Winds certainly lived up to its name.”
SNMCMG1 participated in the ex. together with around 4,000 personnel from allied
