Picture caption reads, "Devonshire after explosion" but the main body article says nothing of this explosion. Needs to be added. Twredfish (talk) 19:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Confusing explanation[edit]

"HMS Devonshire was the first of the County-class destroyers and the first Batch 1 ship" - if it was the first ship of the class then it was surely also the first ship of the first batch of that class - as it stands it confuses the reader, who thinks that "batch" is something special (eg another ship class or type of ship)! 2003:A:1409:BB00:D41C:EE25:AD5:4316 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 13:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
