Re: Quiz: Can You Name This Ship?

This one is stopped to pick up survivors.




Looks to be a Tribal Class Destroyer.

Re: Quiz: Can You Name This Ship?

Here's an even more unusual WW II aircraft carrier. Sorry about the small picture.

Looks to be a Japanese Army Carrier, either the Nigitsu Maru or the Akitsu Maru. Seems like the Japanese Army also had two other designs of amphibious assualt/ Escort Carriers.

Looks like a Bogue/Prince William Class CVE, but island is on wrong side. I have never seen a carrier with the island on the port side.

It was built as a Bogue class.

It's the Akitsu Maru. Incredibly the rivalry between the Japanese Army and Navy was so intense that the former felt it had to develop its own carrier force---mostly using converted tankers and passenger ships. these were used primarily to help support island bound Japanese Army units and most were quickly sunk by Allied forces.
