British Royal Navy submarine HMS Porpoise returns to its base in Portsmouth
British Royal Navy submarine HMS Porpoise returns to its base in Portsmouth, England after 14 serving 14 months in the Mediterranean.
She played a big part in keeping Malta supplied with cargoes of vital importance. She was the first submarine to embark a cargo of petrol and mines, and to carry out a mine-laying operation during her passage. She made several trips, (represented by white stripes on her PCS (" Porpoise carrier service flag" ).
