HMNZS Rotoite Cap Tallie

HMNZS Rotoiti (F625) started life as Royal Navy Frigate HMS Loch Katrine in 1944. She was then bought by NZ and served in the RNZN from 1949, seeing action in the Korean War until being decommissioned in 1965. When the cap tallies were being made up the name was misspelled as “Rotoite” and the ship’s company were forced to wear them until correctly spelled tallies were issued.
