Description: The Battle of the Atlantic was a full-scale war. It was a relentless, savage war against an ever-present enemy and a violent sea in an arena known to its embittered survivors as the killing ground. HMS Gladiator was part of that war. He was an ordinary, hard-worked destroyer and her company of men fighting for survival in a war with no rules.

To the men who fought to protect the vital, threatened Merchant Navy convoys in the Western Approaches, the Battle of the Atlantic was a full-scale war. It was a relentless, savage war against an ever-present enemy and a violent sea - in an arena known only to its embittered survivors as the killing ground. HMS Gladiator was part of that war. He was an ordinary, hard-worked destroyer and her company of men fighting for survival in a war with no rules...
