[edit] Images

I am on a quest to find public domain images of Captain-class frigate, if you know of any please let me know.

HMS Byard K 315 sliding down the slipway on March 6, 1943 at Bethlehem-Hingham shipyard.

HMS Retalick K 555 sliding down the slipway in the early morning on October 9, 1943 at Bethlehem-Hingham shipyard.

Taken 20 January 1943, shows construction of HMS Calder (K349) (ex-DE-58) on the left and USS Foss (DE-59) on the right.
Thanks to Emoscopes for pointing this one out to me.
