Thanks Andy & Hugh .... off to a good start. As I said, I am a true newbie when it comes to WWII.
Interesting to go to that site link and see K225 thrusting out of the water. An unknown number until a few days ago and now it pops up everywhere.
Why there is a Navy site out of Manitoba I have no idea but I will go and check out the details. Thanks kindly for the links.

p.s. now I need to find a White Ensign
