THE NAVY'S “LITTLE SHIPS” AID RECRUITING DRIVE.—Motor torpedo-boats of the Royal Navy, similar in class to those famous D Day craft which swept the German E boats from the English Channel during the war, recently took part in a recruiting drive for the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve. After a coastal cruise the boats tied up at London piers and bridges to give Londoners an opportunity of seeing how the sailors of the Navy's coastal service live. In this picture a Thames water bus is passing an M.T.B. moored to Charing Cross pier.
