	HMS Dorsetshire (40) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Of Dorsetshire's crew, 234 men were killed in the attack; more than 500 survived in the water or on rafts to be picked up by the cruiser Enterprise and the destroyers Paladin and Panther the next day.

	DORSETSHIRE - LoveToKnow Article on DORSETSHIRE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		Many of the formations in Dorsetshire are highly fossiliferous, notably the Lias of Lyme Regis, whence Ichthyosaurus and other large reptiles have been obtained; remains of the Iguanodon have been taken from the Wealden beds of the Isle of Purbeck; the Kirnmeridge Clay, Inferior Oolite, Forest Marble and Fullers Earth are all fossil-bearing rocks.
		The district of the clays obtains for the county the somewhat exaggerated title of the garden of England, though the rich Vale of Blackmore and the luxuriant pastures and orchards in the west may support the name.
		Yet Dorsetshire is not generally a well-wooded county, though much fine timber appears in the richer soils, in some of the sheltered valleys of the chalk district, and more especially upon the Greensand.

	FileFront Forums - Sinking of the Bismarck, Dorsetshire should have stayed?
		Now the question is if it was right of the Dorsetshire to leave the survivors behind because of reports say an u-boot had been spotted.
		In my opinion she should have, no ship is to be attacked carrying out resque operation and i doubt that the uboat crew would have attacked knowing that the Dorsetshire was trying to save as many souls of their (the germans) own comrades.
		The Dorsetshire should have stayed, raised red cross flags, lower any war banner she might be carrying and sent out uncoded morse code messages saying that she was picking up survivors of the Bismarck and will not attack unless provoked.

		Over the years I have heard fragments of the story of the Dorsetshire and her sinking but with the advent of the internet, I have been able to develop more detail including pictures, all of which I have shared with my mother.
		I am hoping to locate survivors from the Dorsetshire who may remember my Uncle Warren, so that I could possibly put them in touch with my mother via email or gather their personal accounts to be included with all materials gathered in this research.
