    Algerine Class Minesweeper H.M.S. Pluto
    Almost Martin, Actually Deans model is of HMS Marvel M443 (from the original pennant number J443). As in Ron's pic. She was scrapped in 1958. BTW HMS Pluto was M46 (originally J446). Commissioned Oct. 1945 she survived until 1972😉 There were actually two HMS Bramble minesweepers; a pre war Halcyon class J11 and a later Algerine class J273. HMS Bramble J11 had the misfortune to meet KM cruiser Hipper and a KM destroyer Friedrich Eckoldt Z16 in the Barents Sea while returning from looking for stragglers from convoy
    JW51B
    . With predictable result! 🤔 J273 was commissioned in 1945 and scrapped in 1961. Here endeth today's history lesson😁 Carry on Lads and Lasses 👍 Cheers, Doug 😎
