I went on the Oxfordshire in Singapore in late 62 (I was 8) to see friends off so I guess it must have been her final trooping voyage. With the Nevasa she was a visually appealing ship but I expect there were few comforts as a trooper.

Lovely shot. Watched her being built next to EMPRESS OF BRITAIN more or less.She was the last of a long line bringing the final contingent of seaborne troops home in 1962 before embarking on her even longer career with SITMAR.

Thanks Paul,
Glad you liked it, happy days !!
Regards Ken
