		I visited your website as I was researching an Ex Royal Navy ship HMS King Salvor on which I was christened in 1949 in Hong Kong harbour.
		I found that it was sold to the Argentine Navy in 1961 and renamed Tehuelche and renamed again in 1963 as Guardiamarina Zicari.
		I note that on your website you have the original name as HMS Kingfisher but it should read HMS King Salvor.
