Commission of H.M.S. Bulwark: Mediterannean Station, 1902-1905. Parsecboy (talk) 13:50, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

why did the govt forbid diving on wreck?

This action - in 2008 - must have been prompted by something? What do the sources say, and can an involved editor expand that section with some details? 50.111.12.90 (talk) 21:14, 26 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is a war grave. 741 men were lost and some or all of their bodies lie within the designated site. Salving and burial are not feasible, so they lie where they fell in the service of their country. Pretty obvious really, would you appreciate someone digging up a relative's corpse? It's covered by the citation at the sentence end so I'm removing the "Why?" tag.
