On Canadian Service
|
HMCS Annapolis (ex-USS MacKenzie, DD-175), commissioned into the RCNavy at Halifax, NS, on 29 September 1940, and almost immediately suffered severe boiler damage due to inexperienced personnel, No.4 boiler being burnt out. Under repair at Halifax Dockyard until February 1941, the damaged unit was removed together with its funnel (space probably used to extend oil fuel capacity); thereafter she was employed exclusively in Canadian waters. Paid off to become a static training ship attached to HMCS Cornwallis (shore establishment), at Halifax, NS, on 8 April 1944, remaining on that service until 4 June 1945. Sold for scrap to Frankel Bros on 21 June 1945, was towed away to Boston the following day. (History thanks to Robert Hurst) |
