HMT〔HMT (His Majesty's Trawler) is a variation on the more commonly used British ship prefix HMS (His Majesty's Ship).〕 ''Bedfordshire'' (FY141) was an armed naval trawler in the service of the Royal Naval Patrol Service during World War II. Transferred to the East Coast of the United States to assist the United States Navy with anti-submarine patrols, she was staffed by a British and Canadian crew. ''Bedfordshire'' was sunk by the German U-boat ''U-558'' on 11 May 1942 off the coast of Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, with the loss of all hands. ==Construction== ''Bedfordshire'' was built as a commercial fishing trawler by Smiths Dock Company of South Bank, Middlesbrough, England. Launched at Teesside on 17 July 1935, she was completed in August 1935 and turned over to her owners, Bedfordshire Fishing Company of Grimsby, managed by H. Markham Cook Ltd. ''Bedfordshire'' was long, with a beam. The Admiralty acquired ''Bedfordshire'' for anti-submarine duty in August 1939.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://uboat.net/allies/merchants/ships/1626.html )〕 Converted for service as a naval trawler, she was armed with a 4-inch gun, machine guns, and depth charges.
