Able Sea. Allan Crowe
Royal Navy HMS Penelope
from:Manchester
My dad, Allan Crowe served in WW2 on HMS Penelope amongst others and was onboard when she was torpedoed. I have his war medals, hat ribbon. Loads of photos taken on Board and on shore. Also lots of newspaper cuttings and telegrams. I have the telegram sent to his parents when he was missing presumed dead. His best friend was standing next to him on deck when he was blown up and as such, my dad never really spoke about the war and I've only discovered a lot of information since he passed away in 2003. I'd love to find out more information and share what I have too.
