Capt. Edward Stephen Fogarty Fegen VC.. Royal Navy HMS Jervis Bay from London
(d.5th Nov 1940)
Edward Fegen was killed in action on the 5th of Novemeber 1940, aged 49. He is Commemorated on the Chatham Naval Memorial in Kent and was the son of Frederick Fogarty Fegen and Catherine Mary Fegen, of Knightsbridge, London.
The citation in the London Gazette for 26th November, 1940, reads: "For valour in challenging hopeless odds and giving his life to save the many ships it was his duty to protect. On the 5th of November, 1940, in heavy seas, Captain Fegen, in His Majesty's Armed Merchant Cruiser Jervis Bay, was escorting thirty-eight Merchantmen. Sighting a powerful German warship he at once drew clear of the Convoy, made straight for the enemy and brought his ship between the raider and her prey, so that they might scatter and escape. Crippled, in flames, unable to reply, for nearly an hour the Jervis Bay held the German's fire. So she went down; but of the Merchantmen all but four or five were saved."

P/O. John Rowland Feirn . Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve 83 Sqdn. from East Ham, Essex

I am transcribing the 'Thomas Hedley ROH' book, the pre-runner of Procter and Gamble Ltd., and on page 47 of the book is an entry for a John Rowland Feirn.

P/O Tadec Felc . Royal Air Force 317 Sqd from Poland
My father Robert Wells RAF pilot on c47 dakotas in India 1944/45 on 194 sqd was married in 1947 to Jean Ryson of Carlisle Cumberland she had a best friend Maggie who married a Polish Spitfire pilot and as a small boy remember being told he was shot down over France approx 1943 and was sent to StalagLuft III and was involved in tunnel digging and when names were put in a hat to find who was going out his name was not picked out and he cried on his bunk all night. This must have been awful and he also was forced to march out hundreds of miles as the Allies advanced. My parents are gone now, as is Maggie and I was told T.Felc died from cancer approx 1960. I know they had a daughter Joanna and a son name unknown. Joanna still lives in Carlisle but I have no other info.

WOI. Arthur Leonard Fellows . British Army
Spr. Denys Fellows . British Army Royal Engineers from Birmingham
My Dad Denys Fellows was born in December 1918. He didn't speak about the war much. I know he was taken prisoner in Crete having previously served in North Africa. He said that they had been made to walk the full length of Crete and back again by the Germans. Before their capture they had hidden in caves in the mountains and kind people from the villages had brought them food and wine at risk to themselves. My Dad had a photo of a young Cretian lady who was one of these brave people. These men ate whatever they could find and there were always tomatoes to pick. My Dad would not eat raw tomatoes again as long as I can remember. I always wondered why my Dad would always pick a piece of bracken that he held above his head when we went walking in the woods. It was because he was badly bitten by mosquitoes when he was in Crete. In later years, he developed skin cancer on his head that was probably caused by the incessant sun they had to endure in the forced marches.
He was taken to a prisoner of war camp in Germany for the duration of the war. He was held in a Stalag camp and did lighting for the theatre shows they put on. He said when he got up in the morning he wondered whether this would be the day he would be shot as it was a daily thing.
