#S3 HMCS Ottawa - ready for card

This was essentially a stub but i moved everything over. Her pre43 RN service included battle of Sparventio but it was important to spread unit types a bit

2/6/2

On 26 April, Griffin and the destroyer Acheron captured the German trawler Schiff 26, bound for Narvik with a cargo that included guns, mines and ammunition. She was disguised as the Dutch Polares and armed with one gun and two torpedo tubes. Crewmen aboard the trawler failed to properly dispose of some of her code documents when she was boarded from Griffin. The recovered material allowed Bletchley Park to retrospectively break 6 days of naval Enigma codes. Whilst not operationally useful, this was the first break of the code and gave Alan Turing essential information on how Enigma was used, so allowing methods to be developed for future breaks. This was the first of several similar captures that were essential for the continued Allied breaking of the naval Enigma codes.

Technically, this was when she was RN, but it could be a justification for code intercepts (duinedin) or similar

Gunnery looks like it needs to be derated.

Good unit suggestion but will now give us two flowers?!

We sound like a couple of anthomaniacs!
