Driver on RENOWN (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• swanq said:

  According to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Renown_(1916), in 1919, HMS Renown "was refitted in preparation for a tour of Canada, Newfoundland and the United States by Edward, the Prince of Wales." Title should be "Diver" not "Driver."

• swanq said:

  The New-York Tribune., November 13, 1919, Page 4, column 3 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030214/1919-11-13/ed-... indicates that the Renown anchored in the Hudson on November 12. Meanwhile, the Prince of Wales was in Washington, D.C. He traveled to Washington by train from Canada.

  Antoine R Andy Brill Thanks Antoine R and AndyBrii!

• andy a said:

  The other ships are "D"-class cruisers; HMSs Dragon, Dauntless, Danae and Delhi formed part of the fleet. The fourth ship in line is Dragon - the structure giving her a boxy bridge was infact a canvas hangar as she was being used experimentally to carry an aircraft here. This image on Wikipedia shows this structure.
