Royal Navy’s heavy cruiser HMS Exeter taken by photographer Ernest ‘Red’ Hallen. Hallen managed to capture the ship from the Gamboa signal station on 8th March, 1935, as the cruiser was returning to Bermuda from a goodwill trip along the west coast of South America. A scaled-down version of the Country class cruisers, the York class Exeter carried six 8-inch guns and these were put into play several years later when the 8,390-ton ship took part in action against the German pocket-battleship Admiral Graf Spee off the River Plate. The British cruiser was sunk on 1st March, 1942, by Japanese torpedoes off Bawean Island.
