HMS Alynbank was damaged in Sicily resulting in the death of some of her crew. She was also outdated and slow but her anti-aircraft weaponry made her an ideal blockship; she was not sunk completely but just sunk in a controlled fashion with her deck clear of the surface and her weapons available for use to defend the make-shift Normandy harbour.
