HMS Sesame

[John]

Any one with any history of this ship

[Melv.]

All I can tell you is that HMS Sesame was an Assurance class tug and was torpedoed and sunk on the 11th June 1944 by a German MTB off the coast of Normandy in association with the D-Day landings.
Commissioned into the RN on 18th Jan 1944... so quite a short life.

Can you tell us which HMS Sesame you are seeking information about?

Seeing that the initial post was in 2007 and it was the only post that he made, He might not answer us.
