HMS Whitehall : A History Compiled
HMS Whitehall : A History Compiled While the 300-foot HMS Whitehall was a relatively unknown ship from WW2, she was an extremely distinguished destroyer, serving from Dunkirk to Normandy and more.
When the Second World War began on the 3rd of September 1939, HMS Whitehall took aboard stores and her wartime complement, and proceeded to Rosyth for her assignment with the 15th Destroyer Flotilla.
Upon arrival, she took up convoy escort and patrol duties in the North Sea, which she continued through November 1939.
Sometime between the changing of the ship’ pennant number to I94 in May 1940 and the end of World War II in May 1945.
