Name That Ship
OK guys, most of you know how this works. A member posts a photograph or drawing of a ship, no other information, and other members try to guess what it is. If the post "stumps" for too long, hints should be forthcoming.

I'll kick this section off with...

Re: Name That Ship
Not Empire Salvage, Wolster, but yes a service ship.

The two flags are the clue LT.

Not a famous vessel, but an important one with a late commission in the war.

Re: Name That Ship
This may have been a bit too obscure. With two votes "Aye" I'll name this ship and we can move on to another.

Re: Name That Ship
Looks like the Union Jack on the front and the White Ensign on the rear, UJ can only be flown at anchor from the jack mast.
