Albert Walter Preston
Royal Navy HMS Moonstone
from:Norwich, Norfolk
My late father, Albert, served during WW2 on the HMS Moonstone which captured an Italian submarine on the surface in the Med. They fired on it and hit the conning tower which stopped it from diving to escape. Its possible they towed into Aden.
Perhaps somebody may have the full story.
