Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. HMS Vandal (P64) was a Royal Navy U-class submarine built by Vickers-Armstrong at Barrow-in-Furness, yard number 838. The submarine had the shortest career of any Royal Navy submarine, being lost with all 37 onboard just four days after commissioning. The submarine, under the command of Lieutenant James S. Bridger, was lost whilst carrying out a three-day long working up exercise following commissioning. The submarine was last seen leaving her anchorage on 24 February 1943 at Lochranza, in the North of the Isle of Arran before her rediscovery in December 1994.
