ww2dbaseGrom was a British-built destroyer of the Polish Navy. Because the Polish Navy was small, her design was to be a heavy destroyer that was versatile and could stand up to any single hostile destroyer. On 29 Aug 1939, she was among the three destroyers that participated in Operation Peking, aimed at preventing the total loss of the Polish Navy in the likely case of a war with Germany. After an uneventful run-in with German light cruiser Königsberg and a destroyer, the destroyers made rendezvous with British destroyers Wanderer and Wallace, then at 1737 on 1 Sep they docked in Edinburgh. In May 1940, she operated off the Norwegian coast, bombarding German positions. On 4 May 1940, she was attacked by Luftwaffe bombers in the Rombaken fjord. A bomb hit her on the loaded midship torpedo launcher, and the resulting explosion split her into two before sinking. 59 men were killed.
