Title: Call sign for HMS Fortune.
Post by: Malcolmbailey on August 30, 2018, 07:36:16 pm
hello,
Having received an excellent response to an earlier query re bilge keels I have another challenge.
I have made a 1/96 scale model of HMS Fortune, an F class destroyer in ww2 in which my father in law sailed.
I cannot find out what the call sign was in 1942 before the ship was sold to the Canadian Navy and renamed HMCS Saskatchewan.
Any help much appreciated.
Malcolm
