HMS Drury (K316)
HMS ''Drury'' was a Captain class frigate of the ''Evarts-class'' of destroyer escort, originally commissioned to be built for the United States Navy. Before she was finished in 1942, she was transferred to the Royal Navy under the terms of Lend-Lease, and saw service during the Second World War. She has been the only ship of the Royal Navy to be named ''Drury'', after Captain Thomas Drury, commander of HMS ''Alfred'' in the West Indies in 1795.
==Wartime career==
She was originally to have been named HMS ''Cockburn'', but the name was changed to HMS ''Drury'' prior to her launch on 24 July 1942 by the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She was commissioned into the Royal Navy on 12 April 1943 and spent her wartime career on anti-submarine patrols and as a convoy escort. On 23 November 1943 she and the frigates HMS ''Bazely'' and HMS ''Blackwood'' sank the U-boat ''U-648'' north-east of the Azores. On 21 April 1945 ''Drury'', ''Bazely'' and ''Bentinck'' sank ''U-636'' west of Ireland.
