Foylebank (right,sinking - courtesy Eddie Palmer), auxiliary anti-aircraft ship, ship loss

 

Courtesy David Lane, quoting from 'Weymouth & Portland at War', by local historians Maureen Attwooll and Denise Harrison - "A recent addition to the harbour during the past month had been the converted merchant ship - now a Royal Navy anti-aircraft gunship, the 5500 ton HMS Foylebank - which had been brought in to boost the area's coastal defences. At 8.40 a.m. (4 July 1940) a formation of 20 Junkers 87 "Stuka" bombers dived at the Foylebank at anchor on Admiral Buoy ... Three enemy planes were shot down before they veered away, leaving the Foylebank ablaze .. It was still only 8.48 a.m. ... Cruelly, as dockyard workers emerged from shelter at the sound of the "all clear", one of the Stukas returned and its pilot released his last bomb over Castletown (close to the Dockyard Main Gate)... 10 civilian workers were killed."  I believe Gordon HUGGINS was seriously injured during this second attack. He was probably taken to the RN Hospital close to the Dockyard before being transferred to Portwey Hospital at Weymouth where he died on the 8 July (see 8 July entry). The story of the day's events continues with: "On the very afternoon of the Foylebank raid German planes twice attacked a large convoy of British merchant ships bound from the Thames Estuary for Cardiff." This comment confirms that Foylebank was not part of a convoy as at least one source suggests.
