HMS Odin (N84) was an O-class submarine of the Royal Navy.
Odin was depth charged and sunk in the Gulf of Taranto, most probably by the Italian destroyers Strale and Baleno on 14 June 1940
HMS Perseus was a British Parthian-class submarine on 6 December she struck an Italian mine off Cephalonia,
HMS Inglefield was an I-class destroyer
Perhaps her most famous role was in May 1941 when she served as part of the escort for the battleships King George V and Rodney in the pursuit and destruction of the German battleship Bismarck.
She was part of the escort for the first convoy to the USSR, along with the aircraft carriers HMS Victorious, and then HMS Argus. She would regularly return to escort duties in the Arctic,
On 15 February 1944, she escorted an ammunition ship from Naples to Anzio. She then took up a defensive position to protect the anchorage in Anzio. She was in this capacity for ten days before sustaining a direct hit by a Henschel Hs 293 glider bomb launched by II./KG 100 during a dusk attack and was sunk with the loss of 35 lives
