CHIROPRACTOR Wallace Block Phone 640 The year 1944 .saw the acquisition by the Royal Canadian Navy of its first modern cruiser .H-M.CSs Uganda. A fully modern cruiser displacing 8,000 tons with main armament of nine six- inch guns, Uganda is already serving in the Pacific. While Canada's losses in the war at sea were comparatively light, thousands of homes across the country were saddened by such losses as occurred. Even more were made glad by the fact that their loved' one had survived the lass of their ships. Much of the credit for the great number of men saved must be given to the life Jacket developed by the Royal Navy which Is seen here worn by survivors of the minesweeper, H-M.CS. C layoquot, torpedoed In the North Atlantic 4 i -. f I ,--TCff"' t--M .,tf-: n.t. , Ail .... - 'l"2. Little but tough were the corvettes which formed the mainstay of the Royal Canadian Navy dufing the Battle of the Atlantic. Above is pictured one of the early corvettes. Armament, endurance and size of complement have been steadily increased throughout the war. When Canada entered the war her only effective fighting ships, other than four small trawler-type minesweepers, were six River class destroy ;rs. One of these was lost by collision in the first year of the war and the others went on to play a strenuous role in the North Atlantic campaign. Shown here is the H.M.CS. Saguenay, now a training ship. Canada's big infantry landing ships, H.M.C.S. Prince David and Prince Henry, had Important parts in the Invasion of Normandy, Southern France and Greece. In this picture the 'assault landing craft carried on the davits of these ships can be seen speeding toward the shore. HOW NAVY HELPED TO ' BRING "V-E" The Royal Canadian Navy has escorted, or helped escort, convoys which safely carried 222,- 000,000 deadweight tons of shipping across the North Atlantic In recent months these ship ments have averaged over 4,000,- 000 tons. Canadian warships have des troyed, or shared in the destruc tion of at least 23 enemy .sub marines; have probably destroyed 8 others. MEN Canadian warships have sunk, or shared in the sinking of, at least 68 enemy surface vessels and the severe camaging of 41 others. Two enemy ships have been captured. In the summer of 1944, the R.C TJ. provided 100 percent of close escort for all trade convoys from North America, to the United Kingdom. During this period It also pro vided warships which made up about 30 percent of all support force groups in the North At lantic. The largest convoy .of the war 167 ships carrying more than 1,000,000 tons of cargo- was safely escorted across the North Atlantic by Canadian war ships. In the summer of 1943, mine sweepers swept enemy mines from the mouth of Halifax Harbor so el f iciently that convoy sailings continued with no ap preciable interruption. Ships or personnel of the R.C. N. have takenart in the -Invasions of North Africa, Sicily, Nor thern France, Southern France and Greece. They also partici pated in the landings at Dieppe and with United States forces which landed In the Aleutians. More than 100 Canadian ships and some 10.000 officers and men participated in the Invasion of Normandy. The Canadian cruiser Uganda Is now in the South Pacific and it has been announced that second cruiser, aircraft carriers, destroyers and frigates, will also serve in the Pacific area. The R.C.N. has grown from 1,774 men and 17 ships at the outbreak of war to 90,000 men and 6,000 Wrens and 939 ships, 373 of which are fighting ships, A total of 23 warships have been lost by enemy action, or through hazards of war or sea Casualties number, 1,772 dead 394 wounded; 87 prisoners of war. 60 missing.
