I am the leader of an archaeolgical expedition that located and identified the destroyer HMS Exmouth last year. My great uncle was a petty officer lost on the Exmouth in WW2.
I am looking for information regarding the TEKLA (Danish merchant ship) and Miranda (Norwegian Merchant ship) as part of my research for www.HMSExmouth.com so please get in touch if you can help me at all. I'd particularly like any pictures and crew information regarding these ships.
The Tekla and Miranda were both sunk soon before and after HMS Exmouth hence my interest. U22 was chasing the Tekla when she encountered and sank HMS Exmouth.
