There are "some" classes and ships of that type in WW2

Tyne-built HMS Kelly?

Hang on a mo ya bugga!

One guess then await the answer if you'd be so kind

Had a great day with the granddaughter so I'll take your second guess

The Kelly it is.

Carry on Kai, I doubt anyone hereabouts thinks your nothing other than a man of honour.

Further clues would have ended it quickly anyway eg. Built on the Tyne. Her skipper being a member of the royal family who was murdered later in life etc.

My sole purpose in life is to lead Kai(or Skidmann) to ''the promised land'' so he takes it... plus i was jus' shooting in the dark anyway and didn't count all the ports! Battle class destroyers not 'Kclass destroyers'; Kai's up! TYne and Metro staion artwork featuring HMS Kelly sunk at Crete: Maybe Eich should consider a new gig: military
art in bus stations!

You are good in your own right, don't downplay it!

Eich should do some serious exhibitions, "military art at bus stop stations" does not live up to his capabilities. Though I would like to see such things publicly
And "HMS Kelly sunk at Crete", yes. I learned a lot about this ship due to this thread, it seems she had even be torpedoed before in 1940 and repaired, if it is the same ship. A shame to suvive all this and then .. "In which we serve".

My brain(eyes) can't decide whether the picture is showing a part of an animal or some kind of a plant

The Duke/Viceroy is one thing; I just take note of boatboy Paul Maxwell age 15 who was also killed....being a dutiful boatboy in my own right goin' on 8 years now...tends to alter your perspective.
