HMCS COMOX, one of four small trawler
minesweepers patterned off a Royal Navy design that were built for the RCN
just before the Second World War. The guns mounted on these ships would
appear to have been recycled from VANCOUVER and CHAMPLAIN, two destroyers
that were paid off and sold for scrap in 1936. DND Photo, courtesy of Bryan
