HMS Sceptre by Ivan Berryman. [Original Painting]

Commissioned in 1943, HMS Sceptre was built by Scotts Shipbuilding in Greenock, Scotland. In a short career, Sceptre under the command of Lieutenant Ian McIntosh was involved with the X-Craft midget submarine attacks on German capital ships and floating docks in Norway. In addition, she sunk four enemy merchant ships and an enemy naval vessel between March and September 1944. HMS Sceptre was then refitted as a target submarine late in 1944, and was scrapped in 1949.
