103194 Coder Edwin Gordon Young Royal Navy HMS Forfar from:Dunfermline (d.2nd Dec1940) My uncle, Edwin Gordon Young lost his life when HMS Forfar was torpedoed. He was 21 years old and prior to his call up he had been a footballer with Falkirk FC. He grew up in Dunfermline and attended Queen Anne junior high school.He had three siblings Janet(Nettie) my mother Annie(nan) and David the youngest and was survived by his mother Jenny and father Thomas, who had served with the Gordon Highlanders in the great war, hence Edwin Gordon Young. From all I can gather my grandparents never really recovered from his loss.Though I guess this is just one small tradgedy in the huge tapestry of WW2. I believe he was awarded three medals, still held by brother Peter.
