Also i found this little bit of trivia :Served mainly Northern Australia and New Guinea. Bombed off Oro Bay, April 11, 1943, with 7 crew killed. Poor leadership resulted in mutiny, with several crew gaoled. Served with British Pacific Fleet on minesweeping and anti-piracy patrols in Hong Kong area. Sold to Turkey as "AMASRA", 1946. Served until 1984. So did they cut off the Grog?
