Sto1 Georgie "Spike" Donovan
Royal Navy HMS Pembroke
from:Kent
Dad was in the Royal Navy from 22 Nov 1938-8 June 1949 list of ships he served on in order of service:
HMSPembroke
HMS Foxhound (H69)
HMS Mauritius(80)
HMS Caledonia (D53)
HMS Volunteer(D71)
HMS Lanka
HMS Waldegrave(k579)
HMS Dido
HMS Triumph
He served on a few more but I had trouble in deciphering dad's certificate of service records. He never spoke about the war during his lifetime but having received a copy of his war records recently and reading about his dangerous engagements makes you fill proud.
