Henry Edward Maitland, according to stories handed down in the family, enlisted in the USN at age 15. He served during the war on submarine chaser SC 100, which was stationed at Plymouth, England (Base 27).

These photos are from his service on SC 100. In the crew photo by the pilot house, crewman Maitland is second from the left, bottom row.

Note the K-Tube frame under canvas, stored against the port side of the pilot house.

Thanks to Michael Maitland, grandson of Henry Maitland, for submitting the photos to The Subchaser Archives.
