John Butler
Navy HMS Ayreshire
My father, John Butler RNVR who passed away in March 2008, was sent to HMS Royal Arthur for his training. He was posted to HMS Ayreshire as a signalman on completion of his training. His most memorable undertaking he related to me came from his ship's part in the north Atlantic convoy PQ17.
