Rod Macdonald's video: RFA Baku Standard - stern DEMS gun

@RFA Baku Standard - stern DEMS gun

The steam tanker Baku Standard was built in 1893 and torpedoed and sunk 5 miles off Inverbervie in north-east Scotland on 11 February 1918 by UC-58. The wreck now sits upright in 58 metres of water. This is a short clip of the stern defensive gun - used to fire on U-boats as she used her greater speed to escape the threat. The water was thick the day this was shot - a lot of particles in suspension but still worth putting it up as part of the historical record. Some of the casualties are buried in Gourdon cemetery, the headstone being paid for by local Gourdon folk.
