Copyvio?

The sinking section appears to be a verbatim lift from here. TREKphiler ^{any time you're ready, Uhura} 10:42, 14 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

How about this as a replacement section - I've avoided looking at the blanked material.

Untamed was on a training exercise with the 8th Escort Group in the Clyde on 30 May 1943 acting as a target.^[1] In the second exercise that day, Untamed was used as a target for anti-submarine mortar practice by the yacht Shemara. When the submarine did not respond to attempts to contact it nor surface, assistance was summoned. Shemara located Untamed with sonar and heard the sounds of its engines being run and tanks being blown. HMS Thrasher arrived but no more was heard from Untamed after 17:45 – nearly three hours from the first indication of a problem. Weather prevented divers inspecting the submarine until the 1st June. There was no outward sign of damage and it was not until after Untamed was salvaged on 5 July 1943 that it was found that she had been flooded through a sluice valve.
