A ship I nearly sailed on. Had the chance of her or the NZSCo "Northumberland", took the "Northumberland" in January 1965.
With her sister "South Africa Star" they were completed as escort carriers. The "Rhodesia Star" as the escort carrier U.S.S. Estero C.V.E. 42 with a displacement of 11,420 tons. When transfered to the UK she became the HMAS Premier D. 23.
