My father, Brinley Powell (Taff), Royal Marine, was on the Nigeria on the Russian convoys and was on board when she was torpedoed in 1942 and taken off on a tribal class destroyer,the Ashanti.
One of his best friends was 'Jock' King who later became a policeman.
I grew up with many of these photos.
