My father in law FX86475 James Parkes (From Manchester) served aboard HMS Avenger when the carrier was sunk on 15/11/1943.
My mother in law has never seen a photo of her dad James so we would appreciate any advice how we could gather further information and ideally although not optimistic of finding a photo of him.
Any info or suggestions welcome......
