	Canada's Navy: HMCS PROTECTEUR - About the Ship
		It was HMCS PROTECTOR that put together the convoys, arranged their escorts, issued the sailing orders and did one-thousand-and-one other things that were necessary for the naval war effort in Cape Breton Island and surrounding waters.
		The first, HMCS PROVIDER, was commissioned in 1963, and until the construction of PROTECTEUR in 1969, extensive studies had been carried out on her transfer of stores and fuel at sea, optimum stowage and handling capabilities.
		PROTECTEUR's Supply Department assumed the duties and responsibilities of MATCONOFF (MATERIAL CONTROL OFFICER) which meant that she was responsible for coordinating all stores and personnel coming into the theatre by sea.

		BUT the drydock was already utilized for the multimillion-dollar refit of the HMCS Protecteur, which was in its third month of a six-month drydocking period.
		The HMCS Protecteur had numerous openings cut into the hull to allow access to equipment being removed from its machinery spaces for repair and overhaul.
		Once the HMCS Protecteur left drydock, the existing block setting was dismantled and then rebuilt to the required configuration for the cruise vessel.

		The sole remaining aircraft carrier, HMCS Bonaventure, was nearing the end of its service life, being a World War II-era vessel.
		The investigation focused on two hatches that were left open during repairs, thus allowing seawater inside while the submarine was on the surface in a period of rough weather, as well as faulty insulation for wires and a panel near the commanding officer's cabin.
		In addition to supporting naval operations, the new ships will be able to transport an army battle group--a capability Canada's navy has lacked since the departure of the light carrier HMCS Magnificent in the late 1950s when she was used as a transport during the Suez Crisis.

		NOTE: A naval investigation was conducted into a fatal fire aboard HMCS Chicoutimi which killed a sailor and injured several others during its maiden voyage from Faslane Naval Base, Scotland to Halifax in October 2004.
		The remaining two supply ships, HMCS Preserver and HMCS Protecteur, were showing their age, and MARCOM began studies into designing a new class of underway-replenishment and naval sealift-capable vessels.
		Criticism has been raised of this announcement that a combined at-sea replenishment and heavy-transport ship would not be able to do either job very well and cost more than just a straight purchase of separate classes of ships.

		She’s currently underway as part of a task group comprised of sister-frigate HMCS Regina and fleet oiler HMCS Protecteur, with HMCS Ottawa to join us enroute.
		It involves having one or two of the faster, fighting ships overtake the AOR (Auxiliary Oiler Replenishment) ship and then exactly matching her course and speed while a large hose is fed across the intervening gap to refuel the smaller ship(s).
		The sight of the Protecteur steaming along at fifteen knots in a rough sea flanked by the two frigates, with a mere forty yards separating the ships was truly awe-inspiring.
