Abstract
SummaryDuring the recent Falklands crisis SS Canberra was converted into a troopship with a hospital facility. Before hostilities began in earnest, other ships taken up from trade (STUFT), Royal Fleet Auxiliaries and warships were assessed as possible alternative sites for such a surgical facility. The requirements for such a conversion, and their application to Canberra, are described.
