ww2dbaseDestroyer Westscott was of WW1 vintage. On 16 Jan 1941, she picked up 143 survivors from the British passenger ship Oropasa that was torpedoed and sank by the German submarine U-96. On 2 Feb 1942, southwest of the Azores, she sank the German submarine U-581, which was the first sinking of a hostile ship using the Hedgehog ship-borne mortar. On 8 Nov 1942, she aided the Allied invasion of North Africa, in which she attacked the French submarine Actéon off Oran, sinking her. In Jul 1943, she was modernized so that she could be a part of the Royal Navy's Long Range Escort group. After the war, she was sold for scrap on 8 Jan 1946.
