Torpedo (type unknown) being loaded on board O 19, in the back HMS Vulpine. O 19 left the U.K. in June 1944 and Vulpine (launched 28 Dec 1943) was commissioned on June 2nd 1944 and then attached to 3rd Flotilla in Holy Loch. So this photo is probably taken in the late second quarter of 1944 in Scotland. The emblem of the frog is referring to the O 19's commander A. van Karnebeek, who's nickname is 'Kikker' (Frog) because of his wide mouth. In the bottom right (with oil coat and cap) Sgt. torpedomaker W. Snel. (Photo: © Collection IMH / Siem Spruijt).
