After Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the H.M.C.S. Prince Robert was sent to Hong Kong to help liberate that colony from the Japanese and recuperate the Canadian soldiers and Roman Catholic missionaries who were jailed in the camps there. Another task of the Royal Canadian Navy Crewmen was to prevent looting and keep the Chinese from killing the Japanese soldiers. The Prince Robert, under the command of Capt. W. B. Creery, sailed on July 4th 1945 for Sydney via San Francisco. At that point she became a unit of the British fleet with a formidable task force of two fleet carriers, Indomitable and Venerable, two cruisers, Swiftsure and Euryalus, 14 destroyers, minesweepers, the eighth submarine flotilla and a hospital ship was assembled by the British admiral. By that time, the atomic bombs had been dropped and the Japanese had capitulated. Hong Kong was isolated with a garrison of only about 15,000. The Prince Robert stayed in Hong Kong for just over two (2) months. This fantastic real photo collection shows the key actions undertaken by the Royal Canadian Navy and the British in relation to the Japanese surrender in Hong Kong.
