The DS series consisted of small numbers of troop/ military transports that sailed from the Clyde to Iceland carrying troops and military supplies including aircraft destined for Russia. The series started in April 1941 and ran throughout the war at approximately monthly intervals, the troopships and merchants often returning in the complementary SD convoy of the same number.
