Beschreibung

108 pp. with 13 photos. No marks in book, boards bright, one closed tear to DJ front and one to back. In 1943, eight escort carriers were built in Portland for the Royal Navy: the H.M.S. Tracker, H.M.S. Ravager, H.M.S. Searcher, H.M.S. Slinger, H.M.S. Trumpeter, H.M.S. Premier, H.M.S. Rajah and the H.M.S. Trouncer. This brought many British naval personnel to Portland, and to give the sailors a taste of home while in Portland, the White Ensign Club (named for the banner of the Royal Navy) was established on the second floor of the building on the southwest corner of Park and Morrison. The sailors could have proper tea in the front and something stronger in a pub in the back. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 005490
