Remarks
The destroyer HNLMS Tjerk Hiddes was a British built, Dutch warship of World War II. Much of her war service was with the Royal Navy and United States Navy in the Indian Ocean and Australia. On 4, 11, and 15 December she made three trips to rescue allied troops and civilians from Timor. She was also an escort for the final leg by the convoy that returned the 9th Division to Australia from the Middle East
Tjerk Hiddes resumed peace time service with the Royal Netherlands Navy after completion of a refit at Dundee. She returned to the Dutch East Indies, and was transferred to newly-independent Indonesia in March 1951. Renamed KRI Gadjah Madashe was the flagship of the new nation's Navy. She was scrapped in 1961.
