'Group A' was part of a sequence of 'shared' Dazzle camouflage schemes [Groups 'A' to 'G'] intended to serve the Royal Navy's fleet of '24
Class' sweeping sloops.
The port-side design must be considered the principle drawing of the two schemes as it carries the ship and scheme details, as well as the
superstructure camouflage scheme. | Publisher: | http://www.iwm.org.uk | Subjects: | Transport Department ROCK SAND (HMS) FLYING FOX (HMS) CICERO (HMS) shipping ARD PATRICK (HMS) Ministry of Shipping First Battle of the Atlantic 1914-1918 Royal Navy Dazzle Section Camouflage dazzle / marine camouflage First World War Atlantic Ocean | Source: | Imperial War Museum | Creator: | Ministry of Shipping, Transport Department | Identifier: | http://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/o... | Go to resource |
