Could be either Ron.

SERENIA was a July completion so she would be a likely candidate in for her 12 month service.........

My mind is like your keyboard .... worn out!

I'm sure you're right .... but somehow I was thinking the photo was from the year 1961!!!!!!

Name seems long enough to be SERENIA.
still got some lamp oil left after being launched nines days after TIDESPRING
Glad I never went to India or Turkey in the 90's - I might not have come back !!!!
