HMCS Ste Therese : Ashore in Tasu Sound.
The Ste Therese explored Tasu Sound, Queen Charlotte Islands, for a few days
-- I seem to remember
that we did anti-submarine exercises at sea during the night then anchored in Tasu during the day. I'm not sure of
some of the names (see the previous photo on this website), but I think the guy being hugged is
AB Toth, next right is AB Ted Hamilton (Thorne), then next right is
AB Demchuk. On the ground are
LS Ralph Oggelsby at left
and AB Mike Patterson at right.
Note: Thorne changed his surname to Hamilton (his step-father's name) a year or two after joining the Navy.
Can you provide names, details or corrections?
Please email Charlie Dobie.
