Actually if you go to the book (post 21074) , An epitome, historical and statistical, descriptive of the Royal naval service of England, its viewable in google books , the boat name is shown against the illustration on page 74 . It's also on the NMM website.

HMS Caroline: WWI battleship wins £1m lottery boost
Barnacle Bill replied to Kevin's topic in Nautical/Naval History
The £M1 grant will keep her safe for a little longer but it is the £M12 lottery grant we need for the full restoration. Keep fingers crossed. -
Sorry Guys things moved on with such alacrity I though confirmation was granted. But yes, along with her sisters Ehrenfels (who was transmitting intelligence on British shipping from a neutral harbour) and Braunfels, Drachenfels were the last Axis ships to be sunk by an English cavalry unit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcutta_Light_Horse If you can find a copy of James Lessor's book "Boarding Party, The Last action of the Calcutta Light Horse" do please read it . It really shows how ordinary people put in extraordinary situations achieved the unbelievable during WWII.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
