H.M.S. Thorn (1900)
Pendant Number: D.57 (1914)
D.70 (Sep 1915)
D.89 (Jan 1918)[1]
Builder: John Brown & Company[2]
Ordered: Purchased 31 Mar 1900

H.M.S. Thorn was one of forty "C" class destroyers built for the Royal Navy — a "30 knotter".

Service

After being completed at Glasgow, Thorn went to Devonport, arriving on 22 December, 1900.[6]

She left Plymouth on 14 October, 1901 under the command of Lieutenant Hepworth Staley Alton to join the Reserve Squadron.[7] He would be removed from command by Court Martial in November after the destroyer ran down a cutter on the Hamoaze, killing three libertymen.[8][9]

In late 1905, she was one of eight destroyers in the First Division of the Channel Fleet's Destroyer Flotilla.[10]

She was one of twenty-seven T.B.Ds. of the Portsmouth Flotilla to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1909.[11]

In mid-1913, Thorn was with the Seventh Destroyer Flotilla — a patrol flotilla.[12]

Captains
