  • In World War II, Intrepid attacked and sank the German submarine U-45 south-west of Ireland on 14 October 1939 in company with the destroyers HMS Ivanhoe and HMS Inglefield. She participated in the pursuit and destruction of the German battleship Bismarck in May 1941, and in Operation Pedestal, the escorting of a convoy to Malta in August 1942. Intrepid was adopted by the town of Uxbridge in 1942 to raise funds for the ship's costs. Intrepid was attacked by German Ju 88 aircraft and sunk in Leros harbour in the Aegean Sea on 27 September 1943. This was the second ship lost under the command of Commander Charles de Winton Kitcat during the war. Kitcat was in command of HMS Imperial when she was lost while evacuating troops from Crete in 1941.
