PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND—As part of a project called The Forgotten Wrecks of World War I, marine archaeologists with England’s Maritime Archaeology Trust used a high-definition video camera attached to a drone to scan two German warships, V44 and V82. After the war, the two ships were beached at the southern tip of Whale Island, located in Portsmouth Harbor, where they were used for target practice by the Royal Navy gunnery school. “Despite a brief mention in the Portsmouth News in 1921, the two destroyers have lain largely forgotten where they were beached—ironically in front of headquarters of today’s Royal Navy,” Lt. Paul Lane said in a report in Navy News. “The attentions of scrap dealers as well as the ravages of time and tide have taken their toll on the vessels, leaving them largely unrecognizable to all but the trained eye,” he added.
