My father and my god-father both served on HMS Sirius from her commissioning in 1942 until 1945. My god-father was Philip G E Farwell RN, initially a sub-lieutenant.

My father was Fredrick J Watkins RNR, initially a sub-lieutenant, though by the time he was demobbed he had become a lieutenant-commander.

I could tell you a little more, though mainly I thought it would be good to have their names appear at this excellent site, alongside their many shipmates.

Pte. Thomas Leo Faul C de G..     British Army Czech Tank Corps

Thomas Faul was my uncle. I have been haunted by World War 2 memories, as from an early age, my grandmother fed me the story of their forced departure from Prague, their conversion from Judaism to Catholicism, the flight across central Europe to catch one the last ferries to the UK, and their voyage across the ocean on a Liberty ship to Ellis Island. They also went to El Salvador, Honduras, etc. before finally landing in Canada to once and for all escape the Nazi scourge. My father worked on the atomic bomb, while his brother Tom served in the tank corps. He dived on a machine gun nest shouting "Hände Hoch!", and then with shaking limbs got back into this tank and dodged 88s and Tiger tanks to drive it from Sword Beach all the way to Dachau and eventually Munich. It's a frightening story and he would not utter a word of it until I was almost 40. Truth is stranger than fiction. I am currently writing a blog about my World War 2 Memories for my website. Please read the "Why World War 2 Memories" on the website.

When this threat ceased around 1942/3 they were moved to Purley in Surrey, and shortly after D-Day they went to France and fought their way through France and the Low Countries to Germany. He mentioned, before he died in 1954, places such as Hilversum and Nymigan. I would welcome any additional information.

Can you help us to add to our records?

Did you or your relatives live through the Second World War? Do you have any photos, newspaper clippings, postcards or letters from that period? Have you researched the names on your local or war memorial? Were you or your relative evacuated? Did an air raid affect your area?

If so please let us know.

Help us to build a database of information on those who served both at home and abroad so that future generations may learn of their sacrifice.




Celebrate your own Family History

Celebrate by honouring members of your family who served in the Secomd World War both in the forces and at home. We love to hear about the soldiers, but also remember the many who served in support roles, nurses, doctors, land army, muntions workers etc.

Please use our Family History resources to find out more about your relatives. Then please send in a short article, with a photo if possible, so that they can be remembered on these pages.














The free section of the Wartime Memories Project website is run by volunteers. We have been helping people find out more about their relatives wartime experiences since 1999 by recording and preserving recollections, documents, photographs and small items.

The website is paid for out of our own pockets, library subscriptions and from donations made by visitors. The popularity of the site means that it is far exceeding available resources and we currently have a huge backlog of submissions.

If you are enjoying the site, please consider making a donation, however small to help with the costs of keeping the site running.
