H.M.S. L 71 (1919)
Pendant Number: L.71[1]
Builder: Scotts Shipbuilding and Engineering Company[2]
Launched: 17 May, 1919[3]
Sold: Mar, 1938[4]

H.M.S. L 71 was one of thirty-five "L" class submarines completed for the Royal Navy.

Service

Completed to full complement on 1 November, 1924.

L 23 was withdrawn from the Second Submarine Flotilla to reserve on in late 1924, following L 22 in doing so. They would be replaced in service by L 53 and L 71.[5]

In March 1925, she was part of Second Submarine Flotilla in the Mediterranean.[6]

2 S.F., then numbering five "L" class submarines, left Malta for England on 26 October, 1926. The formation was expected back in Devonport on 7 November and the boats would fall under command of Rear-Admiral (S).[7]

2 S.F. apparently returned to the Mediterranean, however, remaining there until at least early 1929.[8]

By mid-1931, she had been transferred to the Fifth Submarine Flotilla,[9] where she remained until at least mid-1937.[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]

Captains
