HMS Belfast was launched in March 1938 and served throughout the Second World War, playing a leading role at the Battle of North Cape and in the Normandy landings. She later supported the UN forces in Korea and remained in service until 1965. In 1971 she was saved for the nation as a unique reminder of Britain's naval heritage and is the only surviving example of the great fleets of big gun-armoured warships built for the Royal Navy in the first half of the twentieth century.
