Able Sea. Frederick Charles Eager
Royal Navy HMS Penelope
from:Brighton, Sussex
(d.5th Apr 1942)
My grandfather Frederick Eager was an Able Seaman on the HMS Penelope and I believe he died when the ship was bombed whilst being mended in Malta. He left behind a 3 year old son, who was my late father. I am looking to see where these brave men were buried in Malta, if indeed they were, as I would go to Malta to find him.
Editor's Note: Frederick Eager is buried in the Kalkara Naval Cemetery in Malta he was the son of William Henry and Dorothy Eva Eager. The husband of Caroline Ivy Eager, Brighton, Sussex.
