Survivors of H.M.S. Hardy Fired on While in Water London, Apr. 19.
Almost the last words of Captain Warburton Lee, after he had been fatally wounded on the bridge of the destroyer Hardy, in an engagement off the coast of Norway, were: "You can swim for it now boys."
After the Hardy had been driven aground the survivors jumped from the ship, as she capsized, and swam about 200 yards through icy cold water to the shore. One of the men said today: "The Germans were firing on us as we swam. When we swam ashore we made for three cottages on a cliff where we were very kindly treated, and some of us were supplied with all sorts of clothing, including some women's wearing apparel."
Others walked about 15 miles to a village, which was reached about nightfall, the wounded being carried in improvised ambulances. To keep one man warm he was wrapped in curtains and parts of women's corsets.
