I am searching for photos and other information about HMS Coventry's camouflage pattern in 1942.
Here are photos of her port site:

(the photo with the title "The "HMS Coventry" at Suez, 1941". I think that this photo show her in 1942, because it shows several 20 mm Oerlikons, which were fitted in May 1942 according to Raven/Roberts)

(RN Ships --> Caledon-Arethusa --> Ceres --> Coventry, the photo with the title "on fire and badly damaged after bombing - September 1942". The same photo is included in the Profile Morskie volume about HMS Coventry)
In the Warship Perspective volume about Royal Navy patterns in 1942 the starbord side is depicted - but without the false bow wave.
