Beschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. USS Croatan (CVE-14) (originally AVG-14 then ACV-14) was transferred to the United Kingdom on 27 February 1943 under lend-lease where she served as HMS Fencer (D64). As an anti-submarine warfare carrier, Fencer escorted Atlantic, Russian and African convoys, even participating in a strike on the German battleship Tirpitz before being transferred to the Pacific. Following World War II, she returned to the United States 21 December 1946, stricken for disposal on 28 January 1947 and sold into merchant service 30 December as Sydney.
