The Queen Elizabeth-class battleship HMS Barham entering Valletta Harbour in Malta. Scanned from a photograph from the 1930's
Launched in 1914 she saw action during WW1 including the Battle of Jutland. After participating in several actions during WW2 she was struck by three torpedoes in November of 1941 while operating in the Mediterranean, this caused her to capsize followed by a magazine explosion which blew the ship apart.
