CONVOY SC 14
Departed Sydney, C.B. on Nov. 30-1940 and arrived Liverpool on Dec. 17.
Arnold Hague's "The Allied Convoy System" gives 21 ships in this convoy.

Transcribed from several original documents received from Tony Cooper (Advance Sailing Telegram) - His source: Public Records Office, Kew.
The station numbers have been extracted from documents recived from Don Kindell, based on Arnold Hague's database - see ships in all SC convoys.

Crossed out ships did not sail, underlined ships returned to port (except those that are linked, which will automatically be underlined).

*According to A. Hague, Henri Mory detached on Dec. 3, and Harberton detached to Convoy SL 50 (external link), but surely, this can't be right(?) This convoy from Freetown arrived Liverpool on Oct. 26-1940 (again, see Hague's listing for SC 14 at ships in all SC convoys).

Notes:
Commodore was in Athenic, Vice Commodore in Henri Mory.
Barry Commodore in Harberton.

The convoy arrived rendezvous on Dec. 12.
