Bell Goes Back to Britain

The ship's bell of the HMS Prince of Wales has been returned to Britain by Malaysia. It has been the showpiece of a RelationShips project to honor those who lst their lives when the HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse were sunk by the Japanese on December 10, 1941.

A ship's bell is regarded as the soul of a ship. This one was retrieved from the wreck in 2002 and has been in Malaysia ever since.
