HMS Seawolf
From Warlike

HMS Seawolf was an S-class destroyer that served with the Royal Navy in the twentieth century. Launched in 1918 just before the end of the First World War, the warship initially joined the torpedo school at Devonport before, in 1919, serving briefly in the Latvian War of Independence. Subsequently deployed to Ireland, the vessel carried some of the bodies of those killed in Bloody Sunday to their funerals in 1920 and, in 1924, rescued the passengers and crew of the steamship Asian that had sunk in a storm near Queenstown. After the London Naval Treaty of 1930 restricted the tonnage of destroyers operated by the Navy, Seawolf was retired and, in 1931, was sold to be broken up.
