NEW FLAGSHIP.
יד
LARGEST WARSHIP IN THE WORLD.
BATTLE CRUISER HOOD,
Rugby, Yesterday.
THE
The battle cruiser Hood, the world's largest worship, was com- missioned at Portsmouth to-day after reconstruction in the Dock- yard at a coat of £687,000. She now carries a catapult for Inuneh- ing air craft, Following her trials she becomes on May 12 the flagship of the Battle Cruiser Squadron.-British Wireless Ser-
vice.
[A Home paper of February 14 stated: The battle-cruiser Hood, the largest of the world's warships, is to commission for trials on farch 10, after nearly two years in dockyard hands at Portsmouth. The ship bas
been completely modernised, but the work has involved no large structural alterations as in some earlier capital ships.
She should be ready by the end of May to resume as flagship of the Battle Cruiser Squadron. Να Captain or Commander has yet been appointed to her, but among those al- ready selected for the new commis- sion are Lieutenant-Commander Harry Pursey, late of the Eagle and former- ly of the battleship Benbow, and Beutenant-Commander D. A. Parker, late of the battle-cruiser Repulse and formerly of the cruiser Durban.]
