HMCS Sackville

HMCS (Her Majesty's Canadian Ship) Sackville is the last surviving Flower class corvette used by the Royal Canadian Navy in World War II.

It was one of the 123 corvettes that escorted the supply convoys crossing the Atlantic.

HMCS Sackville was used both in the Navy and as a research ship.

It is the only ship out of the 269 Allied corvettes of the Second World War that is designated as a National Historic Site and Canada's Naval Memorial (1985).

She is now a museum piece in Haifax, NS.
