Hi Again,

I think they were the following:

Havock, Waterhen, Garland, Wryneck and then joined the 3 told by Thorsten: Jervis, Diamond and Vendetta

Hi Darius,

Look at Lloyd's register of shipping from 1939 to 1945 on the net

I think that one of the 4 destroyers of Force D was Havock

Thank you Thorsten,

I think these destroyers were escorting convoy MF1 but not Force D

Hi all,

Prior to the battle of Calabria 9 July 1940 four British Destroyers were attached to Force D. Do you know them?

Hi all,

British minesweeper Huntley was sunk by 2 German He-111 around 30 m W of Mersa Matruh 31/1/41. Any more details?

Thank you very much
Jordi

Hi George,

According to my sources the ship was scuttled by Germans not mined and was refloated and commissioned after the war. Built in 1898.
