Cmdr. Bertram Ramsay
Royal Navy HMS Broke

On 3rd of November 1918 the destroyer HMS Broke was escorting the hospital ship Princesse Elisabeth across the Channel. Owing to a signalling mix-up, they had a minor collision while entering Dover Harbour. No casualties. This date is outside the dates given above for this ship's service as a hospital ship, if she is the same one. A court of inquiry held the captain of HMS Broke, Cmdr Bertram Ramsay, to blame, which he bitterly resented.
