HMS White Bear is one the Hydrographic survey vessels serving with the East Indies Fleet
HMS White Bear is one the Hydrographic survey vessels serving with the East Indies Fleet. She acts as headquarters for smaller vessels which penetrate small creeks and rivers to survey areas either unchartered or not chartered for many years.
The data obtained by these ships is brought to the mother ship and then transformed into vital charts for Allied shipping with the help of printing plant which makes HMS White Bear a floating " Advanced Printing Unit".
Picture shows- Sergeant G Boast, of Taunton, Somerset (Royal Marines) inspects a chart that has just come off the large modern press.. In the background are Corporal J.E. Winterbourn of Edgware, Middlesex and Sergeant WH Baldwin of Nottingham.
