His daughter writes: "My father joined the RN in 1940, saw service in the North
Atlantic before being sent to HMS King Alfred at Brighton.
He was based in Cardiff in 1942 as a Lieutenant when I was born there and he
went to the Far East in 1943. His war medals include the Burma Star and he was
awarded the MBE but I do not know why. In 1946 he was a Lieutenant Commander in
the process of transferring to the RN when he lost his arm when a staff car he
was travelling in in Plymouth was struck by a lorry. He was invalided out." |

Arthur and HMS Ganges. Assigned to HMS Hood July 1940 at Scapa Flow. Promoted to
Able Seaman. He leaves the Hood on May 19th 1941 along with 12 other ratings who
are candidates to appear before a selection Board for a commission to become an
officer. The day after he arrives in Portsmouth, HMS Hood is sunk by the German
ship, the Bismarck, with the loss of 1415 men. They became known as the Lucky
13. He passes the selection board and trains at Lancing College and King Alfred,
Brighton and passes out as a Sub- Lieutenant of the Royal Naval Volunteer
Reserve in August 1941. He asks for an appointment on one of the smaller ships
and volunteers for Coastal Forces. The training base is at Fort William in
Inverness-shire. His first appointment there is as a First Lieutenant on Motor
Launch (ML) 346. His job is to escort convoys, up and down the East coast
between the Thames estuary and Flamborough Head, fight off any E boats and pick
up any survivors from sunken Merchant Ships. August 1942 is the first time they
have “a really good crack at the enemy” when they get a message to report to
Newhaven to prepare for the Dieppe raid. His job on that day is to cover the
landing of 400 men on the eastern flank at Petit Berneval. They are to destroy
the gun batteries there, that command the entrance to Dieppe harbour. In fact of
the 160 men that they manage to land, only 19 are brought back. Along with
others he is Mentioned in Despatches in the London Gazette of 2nd October 1942
under the heading “For gallantry, daring and skill in the combined attack on
Dieppe” and receives the Oak Leaves.In 1942 he is assigned to ML549 and by 1945
he has command of three ships and is the Senior Officer of two flotillas. In Feb
1945 he is posted to ML256 and sent to Freetown in Sierra Leone, West Africa
where he is finally released from war service in May 1946." |

in HMS Gentian in September 1941 HMS Gentian and HMS Myosotis, of which my
brother was commanding officer, were part of the escort of a convoy from the UK
to Gibraltar which HMS Vidette with me on board joined from Gibraltar and we all
met up in Gibraltar on my birthday. When Randal returned to Devonport in HMS
Helford in December 1945 I was there in HMS LST 363 and we hoped that my brother
Gerald Peter who was in HMS Burghead Bay somewhere in the English Channel would
also join us in Devonport but it was not to be." |

A daughter wrties: "He was injured whilst training in Scotland - had a scar over
his eye. Captain of a landing craft on D Day. His craft was sunk. He remained in
Arromanches with one other RN officer, Jimmy Jonas, for some months. Served in
the Far East following VE day. Was in Trincomalee when Japan was bombed and
believed he would not have survived the next operation which would have involved
landing on beaches that they discovered after the war ended would have been very
unsafe to land. He said I could never join CND."
