Convoy HX 11 Cruising Order
Departed Halifax on Dec. 4-1939 and arrived Liverpool on the 18th (Arnold Hague agreees with 45 ships).

Transcribed from original documents received from Roger Griffiths (his source: Public Records Office, Kew).

I have added the nationalities of the ships with the help of "The World's Merchant Fleets 1939", R. W. Jordan.
