H.M.S. Pansy was one of thirty-six Arabis Class sweeping sloops completed for the Royal Navy.
Service
Carnation was repaired after striking a mine in early 1917, and in August of that year Lt. Cdr. Barry Victor Sturdee was appointed in command. Sturdee had recently recovered after suffering what had been diagnosed as a "mental disturbance."[6]
On 25 November 1917, a Court of Enquiry was convened to probe a collision between Pansy and the sweeping sloop Carnation. Lt. Cdr. Barry Victor Sturdee of Carnation was cautioned to be more careful in future as a result.[7]
