HMS Iron Duke after air attack

HMS Iron Duke after the air attack of 17 October 1939 when the ship was moored off the Head of Right at Lyness, Hoy. This photograph currently appears on several military history websites (always with the same crease across the top) none of whom credit their source. It seems to have been copied from a book; you can just make out text showing through the paper.
