Over the years I accumulated much material on HMCS Kootenay.
Most of he newspaper articles of the tragedy on this site are originals
my mom kept at the time and she passed them on to me. I have found
odds and ends, bits and pieces on the internet at various times and at
various sites. Here is a list of a few sites I have visited and although some sites
I regrettably did not note, I would be happy to accredit such if informed.
