I'm a lean and unwashed tiffy |
I joined the Navy as a Seaman Boy in January 1941, leaving in April 1954. I served continuously in Terrapin, from her first commissioning in December 1943 until she was finally paid off for scrap in November 1945.
Norwegian investigative journalist Alf Jacobsen relates one of the most incredible tales of the Second World War, in which Royal Navy X-craft midget submarines attacked the German battleship Tirpitz in Norway.
A daring plan was hatched by the Admiralty to sink Tirpitz using midget submarines to plant high explosive mines beneath the ship's keel.
