CONVOY HX 321
Departed New York City on Nov. 19-1944 arrived Liverpool on Dec. 5.
Arnold Hague's "The Allied Convoy System" gives 36 ships in this convoy.

Transcribed from several documents received from Roger Griffiths - His source: Public Records Office, Kew.

The ships are listed in the order in which they appear on the various documents.
A 1 form is not available to me and, therefore, I don't know the station numbers of these ships.

For info, some of the ships in this convoy had previously arrived the U.S. with Convoy ON 261 earlier that month.

Commodore, Rear Admiral H. M. King was in Curacao. Commodore's notes are not available.

The Rescue Vessel St. Clair (formerly base and accommodation ship HMS Baldur) was on her 3rd voyage as such, having started this voyage from Clyde with the westbound Convoy ON 263 on Oct. 31-1944, to Halifax Nov. 13 - returning with HX 321 from Halifax on Nov. 21, to Clyde Dec. 5. ("Convoy Rescue Ships 1940-1945", Arnold Hague).
