HMS Verulam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HMS Verulam was a British destroyer of Admirality V class. The ship was built by Hawthorn Leslie and was launched on October 3, 1917. The ship ran on a mine off the island of Seiskari in the Gulf of Finland on the night between September 3-4, 1919, and sank.
This sunken destroyer was given to the state of Finland on December 12, 1919 together with the sister HMS Vittoria, but when salvaging began in 1925 it was found that both ships were broken in two and impossible to repair.
