Re: flushdeck DD transfers?

Nelson:

"I think one pertinent question is whose flag did these "expatriate" DDs fly when in service? Melmoth (October 28, 2009) provides a photo of CAMPBELTOWN when crewed by Dutchmen, but I cannot see the Netherlands flag he mentions."

I suspected this would prove troublesome as it IS difficult to see, but it is there...amidships(ish)...the Dutch flag is visible. (I have photos of the Norwegian manned ships said to be under Norwegian flag, but their flags are NOT visible, so I didn't bother trying to post them.)

Look at the position of the original searchlight platform, between the rear boat davit & above the life-raft.
