HMHS St Andrew was a Military Hospital Ship. She was built by John Brown Clydebank in 1908 for the Fishguard & Rosslare Railways and Harbours Board, she was equipped for 180 casulaties. She was commissioned in the first month of the Great War, she made her first trip to Rouen and Southampton and continued operating in the channel transporting casulaties from France back to Britain. In 1930 she was renamed Fishguard, in order that the new St Andrew could be named, the second ship later served as a Hospital Ship in WWII. I am seeking information on the hospital ship St Andrew. The records I have are from May 1917 when my grandfather was wounded in action during the 2nd Battle of Bullecourt. He was transferred from Boulogne and went to the Royal Victoria Hospital, Nettley, aboard the St. Andrew. The records I have are Australian Military records, written at the time. List of those who served with HMHS St Andrew the during The Great War. List of those who were treated onboard HMHS St Andrew during The Great War.
