The search for HMS Triumph
The search for HMS TriumphWelcome to the website for the Triumph Association, which has been formed to commemorate and celebrate the T-Class submarine HMS Triumph, lost in the Aegean in January 1942.
During the second world war some 40 British submarines were sunk in the Mediterranean. Many have been found, and now Triumph's position is also known, thanks to the work of the notable Greek underwater explorer Kostas Thoctarides.
One of our aims is to reach and contact descendants and relatives of the crew of Triumph. A crew list (with next of kin as of January 1942) is within this website. If you are a relative or descendant, or a friend, of a crew member please get in touch with us.
In June 2024 we held a memorial service at sea over Triumph's wreck site. A video of the event can be seen here
