MESSAGES

STANLEY TUNMORE.. My Uncle died recently and I found a small booklet headed Nominal List of all those onboard H.M.S Vanguard During the Royal Cruise to South Africa 1947. Stanley Tunmore was rated as O.D the list is comprehensive naming the full ships Crew (see photo right). Stan was 75 in November. 

NORMAN UNDERHILL.. I would like information about my father Norman from West Bromwich while he served on the Vanguard. I know he was on board when the ships had royal visitors 1945-48. One of his duties was to clean the inside of the gun barrels by crawling down them tied by a rope. 

SIDNEY JOHN PURKISS.. I am looking for information about my father while he was serving aboard the HMS Vanguard in the 1940-1950s. 

WILLIAM CHARLES STANTON.. Seeking information from anyone who may remember my dad William Stanton who served on the Vanguard late 1940's early 1950's. He trained as an electrician. He was from Walsall and also served on HMS Nigeria and finally on HMS Unicorn. He passed away in 1999 and I am trying to put as much as I can in family history about him for my grandchildren to remember him. 

DENNIS KNIGHT.. I would like more information about my uncle Dennis Knight who served on HMS Vanguard. I would like to hear from anyone who may have known him or have photographs. 

LES SIGGERY   I am looking for information on my father's naval career and his friends in the navy. During the war he served on HMS Rodney, and after he served on HMS vanguard, I think as a Chief Petty Officer. If you can help with information I would be very grateful.
