ALARM BELL FROM GERMAN SUBMARINE U-111, a brass bell with clapper, stipple engraved Alarm Bell Taken From German Submarine U-111 -- 6in. high (15cm.), U-111 was one of the ‘U-93’ class of submarines, the first batch of which was ordered from Germaniawerft at Kiel in May 1916. Displacing 808 tons (surfaced) and 946 tons (submerged), all vessels in the class measured 235 feet in length with a 21 foot beam and could make almost 17 knots at full power when above the waves. Well-armed with six torpedo tubes (4 bow & 2 stern) and deck guns fore and aft, each carried a complement of 39 officers and men. U-111 herself was launched on 5th September 1917 and was completed for sea early in January 1918. Despite her brief wartime career operating solely in the Irish Sea and the ‘Western Approaches’, she sank two allied steamers on her first patrol (26 March - 23 April) and at least one other on her second cruise (27 May - 24 June). Hampered by British anti-submarine patrols in the Irish Sea on her third patrol (25 August-29 September), she obtained no further sinkings and surrendered herself at Harwich, after the Armistice, on 20th November 1918. One of the six U-boats handed over to the Americans as war reparations, all of which were towed to the USA and then sunk as targets, U-111 also held the curious distinction of being the only German U-boat of the Great War (out of the total of 139 completed) to number a clergyman among her crew, Marinepfarrer Wilhelm Meinhold., (Illustration on page 31)

OPERATION MINCEMEAT: AN HISTORICALLY INTERESTING SEXTANT OWNED BY G.H.J EVANS (CAPT. ALAN HILLGARTH) R.N., with 7in. radius polished brass bell-frame, signed, inscribed and numbered Heath & Co. Ltd, Craysford, London, L986, G.H.J. Evans RN, Vernier with quick-release clamp, shades, mirrors, and mahogany handle, secured within fitted box of issue complete with accessories and test certificate for 1914, approximately 11in. (28cm.) square, Alan Hillgarth (1899-1978) was christened Hugh Evans but changed this by deed poll in 1928. He began his career with the navy young and was wounded at Gallipoli aged just 16. Excelling at languages, when he finally left the navy as a Lt Cmdr in 1927 he turned his hand to writing adventure novels, with some critical success. A close observer of the Spanish Civil War, when World War II broke out, he was able to successfully exploit his connections with Spain (and develop a wide spy network) and keep them neutral - amazingly only 26 Nazi U-boats were serviced and provisioned during the entire conflict. He enjoyed Churchill’s complete trust and it was probably this relationship that allowed him to proceed with one of the most audacious intelligence stings of the War. The story of operation Mincemeat has been well told over the years, not least in the film “The Man who Never Was” (1956) and several books, however the fact remains that a convincingly dressed corpse still carrying “sensitive” documents and ephemera fooled the Germans, and Hitler in particular, into believing the Allies intended to launch a counter-offensive invasion at Greece and not Sicily as was the case.
