Lt. Edward Turner
Royal Navy HMS Mignonette
My uncle Teddy Turner was a Lieutenant on the Flower class corvette HMS Mignonette. I believe he was the gunnery officer and also, therefore, officer in charge of the depth charge launchers when the ship sank or had a hand in the sinking of three German U-Boats during service in the Atlantic, the Russian run and off Freetown in West Africa.
