Tiger's number was C 20 and not C 24 as posted. I believe she was in fact launched in 1942 not 41, by the mother of MP Anthony Wedgewood Benn, Lady Stansgate.

[edit] Added the info

Commander:

I added the info on the christening to the history. I also included the dates of keel laying, launching, and commissioning. All of the reference books I have looked at state that she was launched in 1945.
