Royal Navy Able Seaman Ivan McMeekin
« on: Monday 25 September 17 11:49 BST (UK) »
Good Morning

I am hoping someone can help with finding service details for Ivan McMeekin. He was born 1926 Antrim. I have a photo of him in a group dated 1951 Rope Climbing Exhibition, other than that I have no further details. Ivan died in 1992.

Regards
Moo

Service records after 1920 are still with the MOD

With his name and date/place of birth it is worth a try.  You don't need a service number but it will cost £30 and you will have to send copy of death certificate
