HMCS Assiniboine Arriving at St. John's

Assiniboine, forced to leave embattled convoy SC 94 due to damage inflicted in the fight with U-210, limped into St. John's, Newfoundland, on 9 August 1942.

Conspicuous in this photograph are the dark plugs of patches projecting outwards from holes caused by the submarine's guns, and the fire damage to the starboard side of the destroyer's superstructure (centre). Less apparent is the severe damage caused by ramming U-210, including the ship's twisted bow (bottom right).
