HMS Badsworth (L03)
HMS ''Badsworth'' (pennant number L03) was an escort destroyer of the Type II Hunt class. The Royal Navy ordered ''Badsworth''s construction three months after the outbreak of the Second World War. Cammell Laird laid down her keel at their Birkenhead yard on 15 May 1940, as Admiralty Job No. J3260 (Yard No. 1055). After a successful Warship Week national savings campaign in March 1942, ''Badsworth'' was adopted by the civil community of Batley, then in the West Riding of Yorkshire. The ship was named after a fox-hunt in Yorkshire.〔
''Badsworth'' began her career on convoy duty in the North Western Approaches, however in June 1942, she took up the role of close escort in Convoy Harpoon, aiming to deliver vital supplies to the beleaguered island of Malta.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Royal Navy ) 'The Mediterranean campaign revolved around the island of Malta, where the British based surface ships, submarines and aircraft to attack the supplies for Italian and German armies in North Africa. Major convoy operations were mounted to sustain Malta and the island narrowly survived.'〕 The convoy met fierce attacks from the besieging Italian and German forces with only two out of the initial six merchant ships reaching Malta. Whilst entering the Grand Harbour ''Badsworth'' struck a mine, sustaining heavy damage. She was towed back for temporary repairs, afterwards leaving the island and heading towards Tyne for further repairs. In November 1942 ''Badsworth'' rejoined the ''Londonderry Escort Force'' by escorting a convoy headed to Murmansk. In March 1943 she returned to the Mediterranean for another Malta convoy, striking another mine on 22 April 1943. Towed to Liverpool for repairs, the ''Badsworth'' was then transferred to the exiled Royal Norwegian Navy under the name HNoMS ''Arendal''.
