Cossack was then sent to the Mediterranean where my father took part in two convoys (Substance and Style) to Malta. On returning to Portsmouth he passed Preliminary Board and the one to HMS King Alfred for officer training following which he joined Coastal Forces. He did Coastal Forces training (in early 1942) in Fort William following which he joined HMML113 at Hornet as a First Lieutenant under the Command of Alan Lennox-Boyd. At the end of 1942 Lennox-Boyd was appointed to MTB650 and both my father and the Coxswain from 113 went with him. In April 1944, my father was asked by Lt/Cdr Don Bradford to be his First Lieutenant on MTB617 and on 24th July 1944 appointed CO of 617 (possibly the youngest person at the time to be so appointed). John Featherstone was his First Lieutenant and John Spink Navigator. In May 1945 he went to HMS Harrier to train as a Fighter Direction Officer and then in January 1946 joined HMS Birmingham travelling to Caribbean before being demobbed in April 1946. His name was published in the London Gazette on 14th November 1944 as being mentioned in dispatches for Distinguished Service and awarded the Croix de Guerre in August 1945 for his involvement in the Normandy landings on 7th and 8th June 1944."
