Hi Alan,
Thank you for posting. I would be very interested in anything you have on the Royal Ulsterman/Scotsman and certainly the image reference numbers from the IWM. I'm quite interested in the Ulsterman and Operation Aerial, as seems my Grandfather was serving on board at the time. They have a bit of history behind them it seems, both of these Irish Sea buses! They ran the Larne to Stranraer before and after WW2, is that right?
Cheers.

Royal Ulsterman/Scotsman serviced the Belfast/Glasgow ferry service after the war. I was on the Ulsterman in 1965

Interesting read Mike. I am doing similar research on my grandfather Capt William Hare. He too was born in Belfast. I am in Carrickfergus. Good luck Sir
