This was the "Canea" of WW2? Or at least how the Commonwealth spelt it at that time.

Other Cretan towns and places mentioned in the Official Histories now have different spelling in modern Greek times:

Retimo = Rethymno
Suda Bay = Souda Bay
Heraklion = Irakleio
Kolymbari = Kolymvari
Sphakia = Sfakia
