History

HMS King George V became the flagship of the Home Fleet under Admiral Sir John Tovey's leadership following the loss of HMS Hood, participating in the pursuit and eventual sinking of the German battleship Bismarck. In the Mediterranean, KGV supported the Operation Husky landings in Sicily.
