Photo[edit]

I took the photo of HMCS Assinaboine remains near South Lake (East Point) in 1969. I have two photos that show the bow intact and much of the ship below the waterline. My dad Tim Ranahan was a CPO wireless operator on the Assinaboine from 1943 to 1945, so it is of particular interest to me. I would be happy to provide the images if someone wanted to put them online in an appropriate directory. I understand that the remains have entirely sunk beneath the sand at this point. 98.101.25.34 (talk) 18:16, 2 November 2011 (UTC)Lou Ranahan[reply]

this is unclear[edit]

"depth charges on a submarine contact and badly damaged her stern on 2 March 1943"

Who's stern was damaged, the U-boat or the Kempenfelt? If the later, why? Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:22, 15 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
