LCdr Margaret Brooke was the first Canadian woman and Nursing Sister to have been named a Member of the Order of the British Empire during the Second World War for her heroic acts following the torpedoing and subsequent sinking of the SS Caribou on October 13, 1942. A ferry that regularly crossed Cabot Strait from Sydney, Nova Scotia, to Port aux Basques, Newfoundland, the SS Caribou was escorted by Royal Canadian Navy ships due to the threat of German subs. When the torpedo hit, many rushed to the lifeboats or jumped overboard frantically searching for an escape. Brooke, along with her friend Agnes Wilkie, were sucked underwater with the ship. They managed to find refuge clinging to a capsized lifeboat. Unfortunately, Wilkie developed hypothermia and began to slip into the water. Brooke grabbed her, even holding on to her with one arm until daybreak, but a wave eventually pulled her away. Brooke was ultimately rescued by an escort ship and remained in the navy until 1962 and developed a post-war career as an instructor and researcher. The #HMCSMargaretBrooke, named in her honour and the first Canadian warship named after a woman, was launched in 2019 and delivered to the navy on July 15, 2021. Be a part of our #history.
