| * It looks like Ville d'Anvers must have detached for Iceland - she's listed in Convoy PQ 1 for Archangel, which left Hvalfjord on Sept. 29-1941. She returned with QP 2 from Archangel on Nov. 3. Dan-y-Bryn later sailed to Archangel with Convoy PQ 4, leaving Hvalfjord on Nov. 17-1941. (See this external site). | ||||||||
Note: The first ship to leave was Port Alma at 07:13, and with a few minutes between each ship, the last was the escorting HMS Ranpura some time after 16:00 that afternoon (appears to have departed over 3 hours after the last ship El Argentino had left at 12:43). Counting the escorting vessel, the names of 47 ships are given. I've listed the names according to nationality, keeping the sequence of departure within each nationality. |
