A mushroom air bubble on the surface beside the depot ship Maidstone in Purtiand Harbour marks the spot where the submarine Sidon sunk after a practice torpedo exploded and sent her plunging to the sea. Trapped in her as she lies with 35ft. of water above her," are 13 officers and men. All hope of rescue for them has been abandoned. It was 20 minutes between the explosion and the submarine's final plunge. Durier that time desperate efforts were made. Survivors came up through the conning tower hutch. As soon as they got out, resede parties armed with breathing equipment went on board the submarine and down the conning tower hatch. They could not go down the forward hatch because it was clipped below. The submarine was obviously sinking, they, having helped some people out, then
