McMorran RNVR, commander of the minesweeper fleet based between Alesund and Trondheim, he was present at the surrender of Aviso Grille, Hitler's yacht and left good photos of that time.  He has left much of interest including an experience he had on HMS Zetland off the North African coast, when it was attacked by 4 German torpedo bombers. His account is quite detailed since he was the first to spot the raid and found himself reporting back to the bridge what was happening."
