Bells on Submarines

[john]

I have been in touch with the Royal Navy Submarine Museum and this is part of their reply which might be of interest :

All commissioned Royal Navy warships including submarines have a bell. In the case of modern submarines the bell is only fitted on the gangway area when in harbour and is used for ceremonial purposes only.
