@Steve

I am now in possession of my fathers merchant navy discharge book.

Give me a few days to scan the pages and I'll zip them up in a file for you.

He informs me that all vessels with steam engines were prefaced with SS and similarly those that weren't steam were prefaced with MV......pretty much as we suspected.

Thanks, Jim. I wanted to use the USAT and MoWT prefixes for fun, but I was pretty sure they didn't really use them in service.

Would have been a nice change, though.
