Royal Canadian Navy : Painting by Dale Byhre.
Many thanks to William Truscott for the scan of this painting.
Original artwork is by Dale Byhre -- See Dale Byhre's website.
William Truscott says in an email:
" It's my Dad's 93rd birthday in April (2019). I wanted to get him something special for it, so I had Dale Byhre do a painting for him. On the right at the back is
HMS Ocean, one of my Great Grandfather's ships as a Chief Bosun Mate;
on the left at the back is HMCS Niobe, my Great Uncle's ship as a Shipwright; then on the left front is my Dad's WW2 home
HMCS Thunder as a Sig; and of course HMCS Terra Nova, mine as an RP.
I only had two postings and the other was to Small Boats Unit so the Oriole or a YFP didn't quite cut it. "
Can you provide details or corrections?
Please email Charlie Dobie.
