<HTML>Despite a thorough (and expensive) conversion to AA vessel, Alynbank was expended as blockship 9/6/44 in the Gooseberry-3 harbor. Does anyone know the reason why this was done? As far as I know she was not damaged & the Luftwaffe was not defeated by a long margin, so why sacrifice an effective combatant in such way?
