Part 1
Old-Flower-class - Foxglove, Rosemary (4 plus 1/2 RIN)

die zwei für die "4 plus 1/2" fehlenden sind wahrscheinlich "Cornflower" (+ 19.12.41 HongKong) und "Lupin", das 1/2-Schiff vermutlich die stationäre "Laburnum" (Wohn- und Schulschiff, + Singapur 1942), ohne bekannte Convoy-Escort-Einsätze.

Die mit hohen Personalverlusten einhergehenden Untergänge von "Kite" am 21.8.44 und "Lapwing" am 20.3.45 im Nordmeer (weitere habe ich nicht nachgeschaut) schlicht mit "left convoy" zu registrieren ist mir allerdings ein wenig zu viel an "British understatement"
