Further to my #673 I have now consulted Wiki which gives the following:

The flotillas wore combinations of bands on their after funnel to identify them. From 1925 the following bands were worn;

• 1st Destroyer Flotilla — one black band
• 2nd Destroyer Flotilla — two black bands (one red from 1935)
• 3rd Destroyer Flotilla — three black bands
• 4th Destroyer Flotilla — no bands
• 5th Destroyer Flotilla — one white band
• 6th Destroyer Flotilla — two white bands
• 8th Destroyer Flotilla (from 1935) — one black and one white band

Identify the ships......

#687.......

I can't read the number and with my luck I'll probably pick the wrong one. A wild guess, Hamburg.

Could you clarify please?

Identify the ship.
Why is her forward funnel painted black?

#693 - HMS Hood at Malta with Spanish civil war neutrality stripes on turret.
Fwd funnel painted darker colour to aid silhouette identification and avoid confusion with HMS Repulse.

Could you clarify please?



Yesterday I said HMS Ivanhoe. It turned out to be HMS Isis, both with three bands around the after funnel. Like yesterday I know I've got the right class, but there's a choice of 4 ships, so it's a guess.


Ton

#694......Correct.
