Box 123, LOS ANGLES, 53, CAL, Famous Lady Boats Returning to Peacetime Service i '%V 'hen the Lady Rodney docked vy at Halifax recently with nearly 200 Canadian servicemen's wives and children from overseas, she brought to a, close more than four - and -a -half years' war service. The Lady Rodney was immediately turned back to the Canadian Na- tional Steamships by the Depart- ment of National Defence. Taken over by the government in June, 1942, the former C.N.S. peacetime luxury cruiser to the West Indies became a troop trans- port. Since that time she has tra- velled almost 170,000 miles between Canada, Newfoundland and Labra- dor and the United Kingdom and in several trips between England, Rotterdam and Antwerp carrying servicemen overseas and after YE - Day in repatriation service. Much of it was logged when German sub- marines were desperately trying to choke off the flow of men and munitions going overseas. The Lady Rodney carried almost 67,- 000 7;000 persons in -this service. Except for approximately 2,00E depend- ents, all were servicemen. The Lady Rodney is the last vessel to be returned to the Can- adian National Steamships. Two weeks earlier, the Lady Nelson, former flagship and only other survivor of the famous Lady boat' fleet, was also turned back to the .company. In March, 1942, while in the C.N.S. Wrest Indies service, she was torpedoed and badly damaged in the port of Castries, St. Lucia. Returned to service as Canada's first hospital ship in April, 1943, just 'before the Canadian forces went into action in Sicily, she has since sailed 231,588 miles between Canadian, English and other Euro- pean ports. She carried 23,580 pas- sengers, as- o senrs, who with the exception of about 1,000 dependents, were sick and wounded servicemen. The Lady Rodney went directly into drydock for reconversion to carry passenger and freight traf- fic. When work on the two ships is completed in late February or early March, 19.47,, they will return to the West Indies run. Sailing from Halifax almost every three weeks, their ports of call will be Boston, Bermuda, Leeward Islands, Windward Islands, Barbados, Tri- nidad and Demerara, returning via Saint John, N.B. In the top photograph the Lady; Rodney is shown steaming into the port of Halifax on the last mile of her long war service.

Hagen,, en route to Winnipeg to join her - husband, is shown in the lower pie. tune, presenting Captain Anaclet LolBlancr O,B,E., master of the. ship, with a framed picture of or.
