Convoy HGF 16 - warsailors.com (original) (raw)

Notes:
Commodore was in Sagaing, Vice Commodore in Sarpedon.

* The 3 ships in the last row have been crossed out on the convoy form, but I'm not sure whether this means they did not sail at all, or whether they're crossed out because they detached for their destinations. Bolton Castle is, in fact, also listed in HG 16.
(For info, Loch Don is listed in the Halifax-U.K. Convoy HX 24 on March 2-1940, while Elmdene shows up in HX 35 in Apr. See also HX 23, in which Bolton Castle is listed).

The ship in station 31 became detached on Jan. 26.

Stentor, Sagaing, Huncliff, and British Loyalty parted company on Jan. 27.

Commodore's notes are not available.

Ocean Escort:
HMS Aberdeen(?) and Active.
