Launched in 1938, HMS Belfast served throughout the Second World War, playing a leading role in the destruction of the German battlecruiser Scharnhorst at the battle of North Cape and in the Normandy landings. After the war, she supported United Nations forces in Korea and remained in service with the Royal Navy until 1965. In 1971 she was saved for the nation as a unique and historic reminder of Britain's naval heritage in the first half of the 20th century.
