She is seen from the river off her starboard side, her hull and island in angular disruptive camouflage, with the yard’s cranes rising behind her flight deck and a tall steel gantry on the left of the picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eShe was laid down in July 1942 as a refrigerated cargo ship for the Port Line and completed instead as one of only a handful of British-built escort carriers. In 1944 her Swordfish took part in the sinking of four U-boats in the Atlantic and on the Arctic convoys to Russia, where she also served as flagship of a convoy escort. In 1945 she joined the British Pacific Fleet, and after the war she carried liberated prisoners of war home from the Far East. Returned to the Port Line in 1947, she finally became the cargo ship Port Vindex she had been meant to be, and sailed between Britain and Australia until she was broken up in 1971.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis print is ideal for Royal Navy and Fleet Air Arm veterans and anyone with a connection to HMS Vindex, the Arctic convoys or Tyneside
