    Dunkery Beacon. Sold in 1955 to R Simberg, Finland and renamed Rissa. Sold in 1961 to Paulins Rederi A/B, Finland and renamed Augusta Paulin. Scrapped in May 1969 in Shanghai.

    Think Tony would be right as this one was sold in 55 and became Rissa.

    nowhere can you find a mention of the fact that the british lost far more souls in this war than any other country.
    No of course you wont because its not true.
