Miaoulis (Greek: ΒΠ Μιαούλης) was a Type III Hunt-class destroyer that was originally built for the British Royal Navy as HMS Modbury but never commissioned. Before her completion, she was transferred to the Royal Hellenic Navy and commissioned on 25 November 1942 as Miaoulis in order to relieve heavy losses of ships sustained by the Royal Hellenic Navy during the German invasion of 1941. Miaoulis served in the Mediterranean Theatre throughout the Second World War. On 10 October 1943, during the Dodecanese Campaign, she saved the crew of the British destroyer HMS Panther. She served during the Greek Civil War, was returned to the Royal Navy in 1959 and broken up for scrap in 1960.^[1]
