Timeless Wake reveals the long – term imprint of our naval predecessor, the Royal Indian Navy, in an eventful decade prior to Independence. Set as a seamless bridge from our mercantile and military maritime heritage to the emerging Navy of a young India, it unfolds action from 1939 to 1945, across a wide theatre..From the North Atlantic to the Singapore Strait and much of the Indian Ocean, Indian officers and men left a living legacy as a wake that endures through the waters of Time. It captures the bold bravery of HMIS Bengal, highlights daring exploits of young Soman and Krishnan while chronicling the tireless efforts in the Arakan. This is our legacy and it is meant to inspire an enduring vision among young minds of a great nation and maritime warriors of a fine navy.
