HMCS Acadia recommissioned
85 years ago today, on 2 October 1939, hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship CSS Acadia was recommissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy as HMCS Acadia. She was first used as a training ship and later as a patrol ship off the entrance of Halifax Harbour. After a refit, HMCS Acadia was assigned in mid-1941 for use as an anti-aircraft training ship and served as a gunnery training vessel.
