HMS Escort was an E-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy in the early 1930s. Although assigned to the Home Fleet upon completion, the ship was attached to the Mediterranean Fleet in 1935–36, during the Abyssinia Crisis. During the Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939, she spent considerable time in Spanish waters, enforcing the arms blockade imposed by Britain and France on both sides of the conflict. Escort was assigned to convoy escort and anti-submarine patrol duties in the Western Approaches, when World War II began in September 1939. During the Norwegian Campaign, the ship escorted ships of the Home Fleet, although she did tow her sister HMS Eclipse after the latter ship had been badly damaged by German air attack. Escort was assigned to Force H in late June, and participated in the Att

  • HMS Escort (H66) war einer der acht Zerstörer der E-Klasse der britischen Royal Navy. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg erhielt der Zerstörer die Battle Honours „Atlantic 1939-40“ und North Sea 1940. Die Escort wurde auf dem Rückmarsch nach Gibraltar nach einem abgebrochenen Angriff der Force H auf Cagliari vom italienischen U-Boot Gugliemo Marconi am 8. Juli 1940 torpediert. Im Schlepp der Forester war das schwerbeschädigte Schiff am 11. nicht mehr beherrschbar und sank nach Übernahme der Besatzung. Nur zwei Mann der Besatzung kamen beim Verlust des Zerstörers ums Leben.
