Description
and History
A member of the
famous "Tribal" class heavy destroyers, Haida was commissioned in
1943. During WW2, she operated most successfully in the Bay of Biscay and on the
Murmansk Run (Arctic Convoys). She was said to be, pound for pound, the
most successful warship in WW2. Haida served in the RCN post-war, being
modernized several times during this period. Decommissioned in 1963, Haida
was laid up in Toronto, Ontario, as a floating memorial, a function which she is
still fulfilling. This drawing represents the ship as at 1963.
