EMPIRE HERALD

Built for the Ministry of War Transport & managed by Athel Line Limited, of London.In 1946 or 1947, but I believe on Jan. 15, 1947, the vessel was transferred to the RFA as a fleet support tanker & used as an 'underway replenishment oiler'. And renamed Wave Prince.
In 1971, the vessel was sold to Spanish ship breakers for scrap. On Dec. 5, 1971, the vessel left Plymouth in tow, & on Dec. 16, 1971 it arrived at Burriana, eastern Spain (Castellón, Valencia), to be broken up.
