vessel of 14,000 tons.
It was laid down as merchantman but early
in ww2 was changed,still on the stocks,
to an aircraft carrier.
Two years latter in 1944 it changed roles
again and became a transport ship and
that’s when I joined it at Portsmouth.
We set sail in January 1945 on a voyage
that kept us at sea in the Far East
until October VE and VJ had come and gone
until I set foot again in England.
If you would care to see my log of this voyage
drop me a line on tala66@talktalk.net
