H.M.S. L 17 (1918) | |
---|---|
Pendant Number: | L.17[1] |
Builder: | Vickers[2] |
Launched: | 13 May, 1918[3] |
Sold: | Feb, 1934[4] |
H.M.S. L 17 was one of thirty-five "L" class submarines completed for the Royal Navy.
Service
In 1919, she collided with a floating dock at Haslar.[5]
In March, 1925 she, L 14 and L 18 comprised Group "M" Submarines in Reserve at Portland under the command of Lieutenant-Commander Henry N. Lake.[6]
In mid-1927, she was one of two minelaying "L" class submarines in Group "M" Submarines in Reserve at Portland.[7]
In early 1929, she and L 14 comprised Group "M" submarines in Reserve at Portsmouth under the collective command of Lieutenant-Commander Alexander Scrope Hutchinson, who'd been appointed on 15 November, 1928.[8] This group remained intact until at least mid-1931.[9]
By early 1933, a third boat had joined Group M, and the officer in command had changed.[10]
In June of 1933, her bell was one of about 100 surplus bells announced as being for sale at prices ranging from £1 to £10. Preference would be given to those offers from men with a special consideration in the bell in question.[11]
