Harold Sydney Bride
Harold Sydney Bride (January 11, 1890 - April 29, 1956) was radio officer on board the fatal maiden voyage of the RMS Titanic. Bride and John 'Jack' George Phillips boarded the Titanic at Belfast.
When the Titanic collided with an iceberg on April 14, 1912, Phillips remained at his post broadcasting the then international distress signal "CQD". Harold reminded Phillips that the new code was "SOS": 'Send SOS, it's the new call, and it may be your last chance to send it.'
