    I'll kick this section off with...

    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.

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

    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.
