Portrait photograph of Nigel BattineHe served with the V class destroyer HMS Valentine, 13 Destroyer Flotilla, Grand Fleet which formed part of the Queensferry Patrol off the Scottish coast during 1917-1918. The ship saw action in the Heligoland Bight on 17 November 1917, when she engaged enemy cruisers and a German minesweeper was sunk. On 15 April 1918, HMS Valentine participated in the action in the Kattegat, during which ten German armed trawlers were destroyed and 110 prisoners taken, but sustained damage which required repairs in Birkenhead. Lt Battine is believed to have survived the war.
