HMS Unbending (P37)
HMS ''Unbending'' (P37) was a Royal Navy U-class submarine built by Vickers-Armstrong at Barrow-in-Furness, and part of the third group of that class.〔Colledge, p.364.〕 So far she has been the only ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name ''Unbending''.
==Career==
''Unbending'' served in the Royal Navy's Tenth Flotilla under the command of Lieutenant E.T. Stanley.〔Compton-Hall, p.84.〕 The ship spent most of her wartime career in the Mediterranean, where she sank the Italian merchant ships ''Alga'', ''Citta di Bergamo'', ''Cosenza'' and ''Beppe'', the Italian auxiliary minelayer ''Eritrea'' and the Italian destroyer . She also sank the Italian ship ''Lupa II'' with gunfire. ''Unbending'' had first fired two torpedoes but these were evaded. ''Unbending'' also damaged the Italian passenger / cargo ship ''Viminale'', the Italian merchant ''Carlo Margottini'' (the former Yugoslavian ''Bled''), and the Italian passenger ship ''Carlo Margottini''. This ship ran ashore and is not listed as a war loss so was most likely salvaged and returned to service.
''Unbending'' was the initiator of one of the rare modern-day boarding parties: having surfaced beside a schooner in the gulf of Sfax, ''Unbending'' found herself unable to hit the small ship with her deck gun, so a resourceful officer leapt aboard and set fire to the entire ship using only a can of shale oil.〔
''Unbending'' was sold to be broken up for scrap on 23 December 1949 and scrapped at Gateshead in May 1950.
