Dervish Convoy
Operation Dervish was the first of the Arctic Convoys of World War II by which the Western Allies supplied material aid to the Soviet Union in its fight with Nazi Germany. The convoy sailed from Hvalfjörður, Iceland on 21 August 1941 and arrived at Archangelsk on 31 August 1941. The Convoy Commodore was Captain JCK Dowding RNR. On board ''Llanstephan Castle'' were two journalists, Vernon Bartlett and Charlotte Haldane of the Daily Sketch, also the artist, Felix Topolski.

This convoy consisted of six merchant ships loaded with raw materials and 15 crated Hawker Hurricane fighter planes: ''Lancastrian Prince'', ''New Westminster City'', ''Esneh'', ''Trehata'', the elderly ''Llanstephan Castle'', the fleet oiler , and the Dutch freighter ''Alchiba''. The convoy was escorted by the destroyers , , and ; the minesweepers , , and ; and the anti-submarine Shakespearian class trawlers , , and .

At the same time the old aircraft carrier , a veteran of World War I, delivered 24 Hurricanes of the Royal Air Force's 151 Fighter Wing, which landed at Vaenga (renamed Severomorsk in 1951) airfield, near Murmansk. Largely owing to the scarcity of Luftwaffe aerial reconnaissance forces in the region at the time, all of the ships arrived safely.
