It's been some years since I read about the Gallipoli campaign. The two heroes were Naismith in E11 and Boyle in E14, both of whom got VC's for their actions in the Black Sea. Stoker was one of the unfortunates, along with four French subs and eventually the E14. I have to go the the local naval museum over the weekend and will try to find my sources for you, if the books haven't been packed yet. The museum is moving to new premises in October but there are 6,000 naval books to be moved.
