I would be interested to hear from anyone who has any knowledge concerning one or more of the BAM Minesweepers which were built in the United States for the Royal Navy under the Lend Lease scheme I am particularly interested in the J375 HMS Steadfast. Which Flotilla she was in and which areas she served in before the end of the war My late brother in law Thomas Gough was one of the crew which picked her up from the Gulf Shipbuilding company in Texas in 1943 and sailed across the Atlantic to Britain Whilst I have some very vague information about her service I would really like to know more about the wartime operations she was in before 1946 I am writing a family history about members of my family and this includes my late sisters husband Tommy Gough Thanks Mike McDonnell
