AbleSea. Sid P. Marquis

Royal Navy HMS Cyclops

My step mother's father, Sid Marquis, served on HMS Cyclops. I don't know a great deal about his time on board, but I do have a letter dated 21st of March 1924 for a meal in honour of the racing boats' crews of HMS Cyclops at the White Ensign Club in Malta. It seems they won the race in Pollensa Bay.

I also have a winners medal, photo of his boat crew, and menu from the dinner which is signed by other crew members. I can make out the names: Bowen, O W Phillips, G Altwood, H Curtis, A Hale, and JS Prescall-Roberts who was Lieutenant Commander President Canteen Committee.

Sid died in 1982.
