Convoy JW 64 sailed from river Clyde on 3rd. February (Loch Ewe anchorage had been closed down). On 6th. February additional escorts joined, including Norwegian trawler Osky. During operation "Open Door" on 15th. Feb. four British destroyers were detached from convoy JW 64 to embark 520 inhabitants from Soroy. AFAIK Osky did not take part in this rescue operation.
