Convoy MKS 18 - warsailors.com (original) (raw)

Transcribed from Advance Sailing Telegram received from Tony Cooper - His source: Public Records Office, Kew.

For info, there was also a faster convoy, MKF 18.

Please note that this external website has the names of ships in the combined Convoy SL 133 / MKS 18.

Note: I've compared the above with a list of ships in Convoy MKS 16 received from Don Kindell, based on A. Hague's own research, and find that A. Hague has also included HMS Allegiance and HMS Derwent in this convoy, the former towing the latter.

Escorts (also received from Don Kindell, whose own work, covering "Royal & other Navies Day-by-Day in World War 2" can be viewed at this website):
July 23-July 26: Borage, Dahlia, Hurricane, Meadowsweet, Monkshood, Rockingham.
