Stephen Halden BEATTIE V.C.

On 27th March 1942, in the attack St. Nazaire, France, Lieutenant Commander Beattie was in command of HMS Campbeltown. Under intense fire directed on the bridge from a range of about 100 yards, and in the full blinding glare of many Searchlights, the Lieutenant Commander steamed Campbeltown into the lock gates, as instructed, and beached and scuttled her in the correct position. The Victoria Cross was awarded not only in recognition of Lieutenant Commander Beattie's own valour, but also of the unnamed officers and men of the ship's company, many of whom did not survive..
