Mona Ross, Women's Royal Canadian Naval ServiceThis undated photograph shows Mona Ross (back row, right) with other members of the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service (WRCNS).
Among the final pages in the album recording Lieutenant Alex Ross and wife Mona's short life together is this photograph, the only image showing Mona in WRCNS uniform. The date of her enlistment is not known, but it was probably after Alex's death in September 1943. For Mona Ross, and for the families and loved ones of the other members of HMCS St. Croix's crew lost in the sinking, the battle of the Atlantic changed lives forever.
