Dundee Submarine Memorial
Dundee Submarine Memorial
Dundee International Submarine Memorial was dedicated on 17 September 2009. It commemorates the crews who are "Still on Patrol" and honours the gallantry of all the submariners who went on patrol from the Tay during the Second World War. The memorial is sited between Victoria and Camperdown docks in Dundee Harbour.
Dundee was the home port of the Royal Navy’s 2nd Submarine Flotilla between August and October 1939. From 18 April 1940 until the end of the Second World War, Dundee was the base of the 9th Submarine Flotilla, an international flotilla that included crews from Poland, the Netherlands, France and Norway after these countries fell. Russian submarine crews also operated from Dundee during the summer of 1944.
