Several of the ships logs for Holderness survived (this is EXTREMELY rare for a WW11 RN destroyer) and they are at The National Archives, together with an 'Action with the enemy' report of a 1942 encounter with E-boats and a few damage reports. Although I haven't seen these, damage reports of this type often include an account of the action which lead to the damage written by the captain.

Let me know if you need further help.
