Tom Purvis 27/08/1888 - 1959

Summary

Workshop scene. In left corner two men dressed in overalls insert a torpedo into a torpedo tube. At the other end, two more men pull the weapon though the tube. A second tube lies on the ground to left, with more men visible working in the background. The 18" Torpedo tubes, which are to be supplied to motor torpedo boats, are being tested to ensure they are in perfect alignment.
