Notable Success of Operation at Ostend
Due to Bravery and tenacity of British
Admiralty Issues Graphic
Story Describing Blocking
of Harbor—Attack Appar-
ently Complete Surprise to
Germans Men Stick to
Ship Swept by Shells and
Machine Guns.
LONDON Hay 15. —The admiral-
I ty has issued the following story of
the Ostend operation:
•’Dunkirk May 11. The Sirius lies
in the surf some 2000 yards east of
the entrance to Ostend harbor which
1 she failed so gallantly to block and
when in the early hours of yester-
day morning the Vindictive groped
tier way through the smoke screen
and headed for the entrance it was
as though the old fighting ship
awoke and looked on.
“A coastal motor boat had vieitea
her and hung a flare in her stack
and rusty rigging and that eje of
unsteady fire puling in the blase
of star shells or reudemng through
the drift of smuKe watched the
whuk great enterprise from the mo-
ment when it hung in doubt to its ul-
timate triumphant success.
'The planning and execution of
that success had been entrusted by
Vice Admiral Sir Robert Keye* to
Commodore Hubert Lynes who di-
rected the previous attempt to block
the harbor with the Sirius and Bril-
liant. Upon that occasion a combin-
ation of unforeseen and unfavorable
conditions had fought against him.
Surprise Attack Planned.
“Upon this the main problem was
to secure the effect of a surprise at-
tack upon an enemy who was clearly
from his asccttaincd disposition*
expecting him
"The Sirius and Billiant had brc.<
baliltd by the displacement of the
Stroom bank buoy which marks
channel to the harbor entrance. But
since then aerial reconnaissance had
established that the German had re-
moved the buoy altogether and that
there now were no guiding marks of
any Kind. They also had cue gaps
in the piers as a precaution against
a landing and further when toward
I midnight Thursday the ships moved
■ from their anchorage it was known
| that some nine German destroyers
i wen out and were at large upon the
; coast.
"The solution of the problem* is
best mdn ated 1 j the chron
invents. It was night that promised
well for the enterprise—nearly wind-
less and what little breeze stirred
{ came a point or so west of north.
“From Dunkirk a sudden brief
| flurry of gunfire announced that
German airplanes were about. They
i were actually on the way to visit
p'alais and over the invisible coast of
Flanders.
No ITeliminary Attack.
"There was no preliminary bom-
bardment of the harbor and batter-
ies as before the previous attempt.
That was to be the first element in
the surprise. A time-table had been
laid down for every stage of the op-
eration and the staff work before-
hand exon included precise orders
for laying the smoke barrage with
plans calculated for every direction
of the wind.
"The Vindictive always at that
solemn gait of hers found the flag-
ship’s /light buoy and bore up for
where a coastal motor boat com-
manded by Lieut. William R. Slayter
was waiting by a calcium flare on
the old position of the Stroom bank
guoy.
"Four minutes before she arrived
th*'re and fifteen minutes only before
1 she was due at the harbor mouth.
; the signal for the guns to open was
I given. Two motor boats. under
j command of Lieut. Albert L. Poland
I dashed in toward the ends of the
1 high wooden piers and torpedoed
them. There was a machine gun
। on the end of the western pier and
I that vanished in a roar and leap of
flames which called to the guns.
"Over the town a flame suddenly
appeared high in the air and sank
slowly earthwards the signal that
the planes had seen and understood.
Almost coincidentally with their first
bombs came the first shells whoop-
ing up from the monitors at sea. The
surprise part of the attack was
sprung. The surprise despite the
Germans wat<hfulness. seems to
have been complete. Up until the
moment when the torpedoes of the
motor boats exploded there had not

it; the beams of searchlU hta me I
to break off short on its front. Il
blinded the observers in the great
batteries which suddenly upon the
warning of the explosions of guns
roared into action.
"Meanwhile the airplanes were
bombing methodically and anti-air-
craft guns were searching the skies
for them. Star shells spouted up and
floated down lighting the smoke
banks with spreading green fires and
those strings of luminous green balls
which the airmen call flaming
onions' soared up to lose themselves
in the clouds.
"Through all this strindenc.v and
blaze of conflict the old \ . oictive
still unhurrying was walking the
lighted waters toward the entrance.
It was then that those on the de-
stroyers became aware that what
seemed to be merely smoke was wet
and cold; that the rigging was be-
ginning to drip and that there were
no longer any stars A sea fog had
. come on.
I "The destroyers had to turn on
| their lights and use their sirens to
keep in touch w ith each other. The
air attack was suspended and the
। Vindictive with some distance yet to
go found herself in gross darkness.
There were motor boats on either
side of her escorting her to the en-
trance. These were supplied with
what are called Dover flares enor-
mous lights capable of illuminating
many square miles of sea. But the
fog and smoke were too dense for
even the flares.
Vindictive Finds Entrance.
! “The Vindictive then put her helm
'over and started to cruise to find
‘the entrance. Twice she must have
1 xv ished across and at the third turn
upon .reaching the position at which
she first lost her way there came a
riffle in the mist and she saw the
entrance and the piers on either side
and an opening dead ahead.
"The motor boat U. P. No. 22.
commanded by Acting Lieut. Guy L.
Cockburn rated on into the open-
ing under heavy ami momentarily
growing fire and planted a flare on
tho water between the piers. The
i Vindictive steamed over it and on.
| She was in.
"The guns found her at once. She
I was hit every few seconds after she
entered her scarred hull broken
afresh in a score of places her decks
and upper works swept by machine
I guns.
"After her control was demolished
by a shell which killed all the occu-
pants including Bub-Lieut. Angus H
MacLachan. who was in command
of it the upper ami lower bridges
and the chart room swept by bullet*
Commander Godsal ordered the offi-
cers to gc with him to the conning
tower. They observed through the
observation slit in the steel wall of
the conning tower that the eastern
pier was breached from two hun-
dred yards from the seaward end as
though at some time a ship had been
in collision with it.
SIkJI Hits Conning Tourr.
“Immediately after pausing the
breach in the pier Commander God- i
sill k ft the conning tower and went I
•on deck the better to watch tho
ship's movements. He chose a posi-
tion and called in through the slit of
tho conning tower his order to star-
board the helm. The Vindictive re-
sponded and laid her battered nose .
to the eastern pier and prepared to I
swing her 320 feet of length across
the channel.
"It was at that moment that a
shell from the shore batteries struck
the conning tower. Lieut. Sir John
Alleyne and Lieut. V. A. C. Crutch-
ley were still within. Commander
Godsal was close to the’ tower out-
side. Lieutenant Alleyne was stunned
by the shock. Lieutenant Crutchley
shouted through the slit to the com-
mander and receiving no answer
rang for the port engine speed astern
to help the swinging ship. Bv this
time she was lying at an angle of
about forty degrees to the pier ami
seemed to be hard fast so it was im-
possible to bring her further around.
"After working the engines to no
effect Lieutenant Crutchley gave the
order to clear the engine room and
abandon ship according to the pro-
grim previously laid down. Engineer
Lieutenant Commander William A.
Bury who was the last to leave the
engine room blew the main charges
by a switch installed aft. Then Lieu-
tenant Crut< hley blew the auxiliary
charges in the forward sixrinch ma-
gazine from the conning tower.
"Those on board felt the old ship
shrug as the explosive tore the bot-
; tom plates and bulkheads from her.
■ She sunk and lay upon the bottom
of tho channel. Her work was done.
Godsal Killed by Shell.
“It is to be presumed that Com-
mander Godsal was killed by the
shell which struck the conning tow-
er.
"Most of the casualties o-curred
xvhile the ship was being abandoned.
The men behaved with that cheery
discipline and courage which distin-
guished them in the Zeebrugge raid j
"It is not claimed by the officers
who carried out the operations that j
Ostend harbor is completely blocked.
But its purpose to embarrass th<
enemy and niak • th« harbor imprac- <
• ticable to any but small craft and for
dredging operations difficult has '
l»een fully ar omplished. The posi- .
tion of the Vindictive is with stem |
on to the eastern pier and not her
stern as shown in certain published
illustrations."

ARE YOU STILL
YOUNG AT HEART?
Then Why Look Older Than You
I eel ?
Every woman is as young as she ।
looks so w hy let sentiment or prej-j
mlice prevent your keeping youth-;
ful as long as you wish?
Not long ago many xvomen would !
not use face powders or cosmetics.
Today practically every xvoman I
knows their need and uses them.
This is equally true of the hair col- '
or restorer. Thousands of xvomen .
keep their hair dark and ^outhful
with Q-ban Hair Color Restorer i
It is not a dye but a delightful toi-
let preparation which brings back |
the color and gloss as gradually ami 1
evenly as the natural renewing of
the hair itself.
Q-ban will not stain the scalp
wash or rub off and does not in-
terfere with washing or waving the
hair. Keeps it glossy and healthy.
