At Ushant, the 10th Destroyer Flotilla combined four British, two Canadian and two Polish destroyers. Basil Jones is identified as the officer in charge. The named force includes Ashanti, Eskimo, Javelin, Tartar, Haida and Huron, alongside the two Polish ships whose names are unclear in the captions. The mission was to stop interference with the Normandy landings. PPI helped the destroyers maneuver in darkness, locate the enemy and track each other's positions. That shared picture supported coordination within the mixed force.
