REQ: Any info on HMS Thesus

She was a light CV used for a variety of second-line roles and I am having
great difficulty finding out any details about this ship. All help
appreciated!

"Nothing but my forehead, sir."

That's likely a typo, btw. I have heard of HMS Theseus and its very likely
that the person sending me the photos misread the name on the light carrier's
stern.

Gordon, you were missing an "e" in the name[1], which is probably why you
weren't finding much

Thanks, guys - all help appreciated. On the photos being sent to me, the
ship's stern is slightly turned away from the camera so the photographer got
the name a little off. I will scan and send them to Dave to post after I get
them in.
