If at first you don't succeed********* the link below is for the Imperial War Museum. I don't think it's a photo, (top item on page), but it might tell you something about the ship.

I think you have to buy it, (probably a CD), but OH has bought things from them and they are good value.

If this doesn't work, I have run out of ideas - sorry.

Try this site. You may find what you are looking for on one of the group photos. I have been looking at the picture of all ships sunk in WW2, but it needs to be a lot bigger!!

Thanks Kathleen for your reply but this does not bring up the specific photo of MTB 640 which is what I am after.
Please redirect me if I am wrong.
Kind regards
