Adding ship name to list...
[edit]I cannot find HMHS Assaye on either the complete list or ships or on the list of WWI Hospital Ships. She is mentioned in the original ship's log of HMS Juno, on the 17th of August 1916, 2pm note, as the place of the death of crewman Arthur Tullett of heat and septicemia.
http://oldweather.s3.amazonaws.com/ADM_53-45473/ADM%2053-45473-011_1.jpg These logs have been accepted by Wikipedia as valid sources for hard data.
She is also listed on the Royal Navy's Roll of Honour: http://www.roll-of-honour.com/Ships/HMTroopshipAssaye.html "...on 19th AUgust 1914 she was hired by the Admiralty for service as a troopship and later a hospital ship. In 1921 she took troops to the Turkish troubles, and while in Constantinople collided (without much damage) with the Italian steamer UMBRIA. She was then used during 1923/27 as an Indian troop ship. In 1927she carried the Devonshire Regiment to the Shanghai disturbances as part of the Shanghai Defence Force. She was converted into a hospital ship in Hong Kong and the in 1928 she reverted to being a troopship to bring the Coldstream Guards home from Shanghai. ..."
Could this ship be added to both pages please? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ship_names_of_the_Royal_Navy_(A) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hospitals_and_hospital_ships_of_the_Royal_Navy Janet Jaguar (talk) 01:51, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
