Simms

USS Simms was a converted Grik vessel named for a sailor, Andy Simms, who had died during the Battle of Aryaal.

Missions

 * Matthew Reddy dispatched Simms and another former Grik vessel fitted out as a freighter on a dual mission. The first phase was to escort Saan-Kakja aboard Placca-Mar part of the way to Maa-ni-la. The two groups parted west of Mindanao. Simms and the freighter proceeded to Talaud Island.
 * She was ordered to intercept HMS Ajax and was sunk by her. Captain Lelaa-Tal-Cleraan was captured and the crew of her boat the only survivors.
