On 3rd September 1939, within hours of war being declared, she intercepted the German freighter Hannah Böge south of Iceland and took her as the first prize of the war at sea. In March 1941 she took part in Operation Claymore, the commando raid on the Lofoten Islands. On 20th September 1942, screening the homeward Arctic convoy QP 14, she was torpedoed by U-703. Her sister ship HMS Ashanti took her in tow, but she broke up and sank in a gale five days later, the last Royal Navy Tribal Class destroyer lost in the war.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
