Description
The need for a logistic support ship to provide a sealift for the Army’s Ready Reaction Force was identified by the NZ Government in the 1978 Defence review.
After a wide search it was decided to purchase the Mercandian Queen II. Renamed Sealift it was delivered to Auckland in March 1995, and commissioned later that year as HMNZS Charles Upham
This is the story of that ship.
