An unidentified member of the Women's Royal Canadian Naval Service (W.R.C.N.S.) operating direction-finding equipment at H.M.C.S. COVERDALE, Riverview, New Brunswick, Canada, August 1945 From Library and Archives Canada a142540-v6
The CPO of Coverdale base, Irene Carter, related this wartime story” One of our operators (Anne Elder) received a strong blast from NSHQ in Ottawa for sending in a bearing on a sub which was obviously incorrect as she had placed the sub in the St. Lawrence River. A few days later they at least had the courtesy to apologize when the they found the sub really was in the St. Lawrence!”.
