RAF escort of French Destroyers 23 / 24 April 1941
RAF squadrons escorted 3x French Destroyers to attack German convoy shipping around the area of Skagerrak, a strait of land running between the Jutland peninsula of Denmark, the southeast coast of Norway and the west cost of Sweden.
Does anyone know the name of these vessels that the RAF escorted there and from on these dates. Thanks for you help in advance. Cheers Danny

Danny,
I wonder if you mean 23/24 April 1940 instead of 1941? If so, then the "contre-torpilleurs" Le Malin, Le Triomphant and l'Intomptable. An account (in French) here: http://titanne.free.fr/elg-8e-dct-skagerrak-1.php Regards, Leendert |
