EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment during the First World War when the British submarine D1, one of the latest additions to the Royal Navy's submarine fleet, leads the way through the waters with HMS Drake following closely in her wake. Dated to 1914, this image underscores the significant role submarines played in naval warfare during this period. The British submarine service had made remarkable strides in the early 20th century, with D1 being one of the most advanced submarines of her time. Equipped with the latest wireless telegraphy technology, she was able to communicate with other ships and bases, enhancing the navy's ability to coordinate operations and respond to threats. In this image, HMS Drake, a cruiser, can be seen trailing behind D1. The cruiser's presence likely served multiple purposes, including providing protection and support to the submarine and maintaining visual contact. The image underscores the importance of teamwork and coordination in naval warfare during the First World War. The use of wireless telegraphy on submarines was a game-changer, allowing them to operate more independently and effectively. This technology enabled submarines to receive orders, report their positions, and communicate with other vessels, enhancing their ability to contribute to the overall war effort. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the British Navy during the First World War, as they adapted to the challenges of submarine warfare and harnessed the power of wireless telegraphy to communicate effectively on the open sea.
