Service history
In early August 1902 John Alfred Moreton was appointed to the submarine depot ship HMS Hazard, to take command of HM Submarine No.3.{{Cite newspaper The Times |title=Naval & Military intelligence |date=20 October 1902 |page=8 |issue=36903}}
Along with {{HMS|Holland 5||2}}, she was one of the first two submarines to be accepted into Royal Navy service on 19 January 1903.{{cite web|title=Holland 5 Submarine|url=http://www.nauticalarchaeologysociety.org/projects/holland5.php|publisher=Nautical Archaeology Society|access-date=20 January 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120302225933/http://www.nauticalarchaeologysociety.org/projects/holland5.php|archive-date=2 March 2012|df=dmy-all}} However, by the time she was launched she was already considered obsolete and thirteen A-class submarines had already been ordered.{{cite book|last=McCartney|first=Innes|title=Lost Patrols: Submarine Wrecks of the English Channel|year=2008|publisher=Periscope|location=Penzance|isbn=978-1-904381-04-4|pages=135–136|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=j6ooZdh1rlkC&q=%22holland+5%22+submarine&pg=PA135}}
