HMCS Morden was a Flower-class corvette that served with the Royal Canadian Navy during the Second World War.
The "corvette" designation was created by the French for classes of small warships; the Royal Navy borrowed the term for a period but discontinued its use in 1877.
[8] After arriving at Halifax for deployment, Morden was assigned to Newfoundland Command for one convoy in November 1941 before heading for a refit.
[8] On 1 September 1942, Morden sank U-756 in the North Atlantic about 440 nautical miles (810 km; 510 mi) west-south-west of Cape Farewell in position 57°41′N, 31°30′W.
While patrolling with EG 9 south of the Isles of Scilly, the group was ordered to reinforce Convoys ONS 18/ON 202 which was hard pressed by a U-boat wolfpack attack.
[8] On 23 September 1943 the French corvette Renoncule and Morden picked up survivors from the American merchant Steel Voyager that was torpedoed and sunk by U-952 in the North Atlantic.
