I have been looking to collate as much information on the history of the Tug Lyttelton as I possibly can. One period of her history I am bereft of information. Her WW11 years. I know she was requisitioned in April 1942 and relived of duty September 1944. During that period the Tug was on mine sweeping duty and equipped with guns on her flying bridge, portable depth charge chutes and a degaussing unit. Not one photograph of this equipment on board can I find. Except for these fine gentlemen. I feel there must be more out there.![]()
