HMS Whitethorn

(1/1)

douglaso:
My grandfather served on the M/S trawler Whitethorn at HMS Baldur, Iceland from Feb 43 to April 44. We haven’t been able to track down any photographs of her, I believe pennant no was T127, would anyone have any further info or point us in the right direction? Many thanks

It is about the restoration of a model of the Whitethorn and includes a " ..photo of the ship, taken by a crew member whose name was written on the reverse."

Looks like this is now at New Brunswick Museum in St John, NB. Canada.

Might be worth trying to contact them..
