Darren Brown wrote: ... photo from a book called The Forgotten Flotilla, published by the Royal Navy Submarine Museum. Other photos of him also belong to the museum.This book is the memoirs of Robert's navigating officer Leslie Ashmore who talks a lot of him, it also describes their terrifying break though to the Baltic under the Germans nose. The whole time E18 was in the Baltic working with the Russian Fleet the commander of the British submarine E8, which was also there, kept a very detailed diary held by the Imperial War Museum. Robert was a very superstitious man, before E18 sailed on her last patrol he had his palm read, he was told he was in grave danger, from here he went to a British diplomats wife and said that if anything happens can she send a message to his wife before she received the official naval telegram, this wish carried out before the official admin date of 11-6-1916. My great grandfather for some unknown reason didn't sail on E18 that day and was replaced by the telegraphist from E8, my great grandfather became known as a good luck charm in which all the commanders wanted him on their subs, he had been with Robert Halahan from when E18 was being built and only missed this last patrol.
