Another Royal Navy Question
« on: Thursday 30 May 19 17:20 BST (UK) »
According to dad's records, he was based on HMS Pembroke from June 1945 to June 1946. I believe this was a shore based "stone ship" at Chatham.

But we know that, during this time, he went to Australia - we believe to bring back some of the children were sent out as refugees. Is there any way of finding out more? Does anyone here know anything about these long-haul, post war trips?

Cheers,

Jen :)
