HMS Starling was a newer and more powerful ship for Johnny Walker. It was a Black Swan Class sloop as were the other five ships in his 2nd Support Group. Having better ships and experienced crew meant that the Black Swans were soon the most feared ships for the German U-boat commanders. Image Courtesy of Imperial War Museum |
