Corrected message.

I have compared your list with my records and there are some discrepancies.
US LCI 102 was not transferred to France; it was wrecked in the Adriatic 11 Nov 1944 under British flag.
You do not list US LCI 109 (L 9044), 249, 377 (L 9055), 508 (L 9050), 1092 (L 9032)

Among the first transferred were those the French designated 101 to 104 and 201 to 204.
101 L 9040 unk US number
102 unk
103 L 9042 US LCI 305 tfr 26 Jan 1948
104 US LCI 293 tfr 26 Jan 1948
201 Unk
202 US LCI 310 tfr 26 Jan 1948
203 US LCI 248 tfr Jan 1948
204 US LCI 174 tfr 26 Jan 1948

Also transferred that date were US LCI 117, 216, 249. 262, 305, so the unknown could be some of those..

Transferred 19 Apr 1946: US LCI 109, 217, 263, 270, 271, 299.

One of my sources is Liste de la Flotte de Guerre Francaise, by Frank Lecalve (about 1970).
