Troopships

Gents
 
I seem to remember seeing someone had posted photographs of various troopships used during the postings of the Royals
 
Can any one help me out as to who it was that posted them
 
Thanks

    The only(thank goodness)Troop Ship I was on was the Empire Ken.Not exactly renowned for the comforts of home,grub was'nt bad though.I remember some guys were sick even in a flat calm - I could weather any storm - but if those around you start to heave then it gets to me too!   Not so keen sea-dog,   ----- Don.
