HMS "Princess Elizabeth"

I would like to know if this ship is in the Harbour at Dunkirk.

She was a Paddle Steamer of the Red Funnel Group. and was used in the evacuation of troops from Dunkirk during the last war.

She was also a minesweeper, and an anti-aircraft ship, and made 4 trips to bring home troops from the beeches, rescued 1,763 troops including 500 French soldiers.

If no longer at Dunkirk, where she had been turned into a conference centre, would you have any information where she is now.

My Father served on this ship, and was awarded the D.S.C. and I would love to see her. I would be most grateful for any help.

Very many thanks. Delscey Whittle. (nee Carp)
