Cloche et plaque du NCSM Griffon

Thunder Bay, Ontario

Type

Autre

Cette cloche appartient au NCSM Griffon. Comme l’explique la plaque, le NCSM Ottawa avait brièvement été nommé NSM Griffin durant la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. Malgré l’épellation différente, c’est la raison pour laquelle la cloche du NCSM Griffon est celle du NSM Griffin. Le nom des enfants qui ont été baptisés à bord du navire y sont gravés.
