Hope they will prove to be of some interest!

Thanks! Looks like a variant of the LST(3) class.

I wonder if you have a photo of HMS Ribble a River class frigate from WW2 Which our local village collected money for on Warship week in 1942 . And also HMS Dido a anti aircraft cruiser my late uncle served on .

Aron - sorry for the delay my friend I have been away for a few days.

Here are pictures of Dido and Ribble for you.

Hi Cally,

Do you have any of the Empire Battleaxe? It was either this or HMS Glenearn that ferried my Grandad on D-Day.

Thanks

Hi Matt - unfortunately not very good ones I`m afraid.

I enclose a small picture of Empire Battleaxe and as well a picture of one of the landing craft that was used to decant soldiers from her to the beach during D-Day.

I have better pictures of the other ship used Glenearne....
