HMCS Niobe Canada Cruiser, Depot Ship Hospital Wharf, north end of Dockyard Serious Damage. Several crew, including entire pinnace crew, killed. Surviving crew assisted ashore. This was the ship he and his two brothers were on.. The mission was to escort supply ships and troops ships 1/2 way to Europe... They would then turn around and go back to pick up another convoy. He said the seas were so rough at times you would not see the fleet for days when crossing. I have a picture of ship and whole crew taken in Dec 1918. It looks like it had a crew of 400/500. The picture is three feet across.
