Summary

Description
English: The Swedish destroyer Remus alongside a British Tribal-class destroyer, while a British crew is starting the engines. On 20 June 1940, the destroyers HMS Tartar (F43) and HMS Mashona (F59) seized the Swedish destroyers Romulus and Remus at the Faeroes. These ships had been purchased from Italy and were on passage to Sweden. After intense diplomatic activity they were later returned to Sweden after having been sailed to from Scapa Flow, Scotland (UK).
Svenska: Brittisk Tribal-klass jagare långsides den betydligt mindre Remus. En tillfällig brittisk besättning försöker starta jagarens maskineri.
