Summary[edit]

Description Scuttling of the French Fleet at Toulon on 27 November 1942: Destroyers Foudroyant (center, left) and Le Hardi (center, right, listing to port) sunk off the southwestern waterfront of Parc a Charbon island, soon after scuttling. Partially visible at far left and far right are the apparently undamaged destroyers Trombe (left) and Bison (right). The latter is incomplete, as shown by the absence of gun barrels in her after 130 mm twin gun mounts. Foudroyant and Bison were originally named Fleuret and Le Flibustier, respectively.
