Hi cally.

Wondered if you had any photos of the destroyer HMS Kingston F64 / G64. I have a few and thought you might have some I haven't.

Also of the escort sloop HMS Fishguard (ex USCG Tahoe) Y59

Regards
Peter.

 

CALLY, require HM Submarine H49 & also DIANA and HMS ELFIN as ship, not site & HMS NETTLE if you have (aka ELFIN). Thanks for further offer.

DREW thanks for input - great that the old girl is being preserved.
Must admit an `interest'. I am `Liaison Officer' to ELFIN.

richard payne Looking for pictures of HMS Malcolm - same as above. 2 others. This finally leaves:

Anyway any other requests please post here and I will do what I can to help.

Cally.


I'm a little puzzled that I've never seen a photo of Malcolm during the Dunkirk period as she was especially active. Do you by any chance have a May / June 1940 one ?

Many thanks Andy,

I already have this photo in my collection. I believe it was taken in Algiers, in fact I have another of almost the same, but with Fishguard flying her pennant.

Once again many thanks

Regards
Peter.

 

No worries Peter. Did you click the link above the picture?

Hi Andy

Yes I did click the link, thanks. I have the full history of both Kingston and Fishguard. Looking for photos that may have been taken privately I have most if not all from the IWM.

One of my uncles served on both, he was awarded the DSM while serving on Kingston during the Second Battle of Sirte in March 1942.

Regards
Peter.

 

Hello Cally
Not a Capital Ship, but wondering in your collection if you have the LCIL 305 at your disposal. A chum took her in three times 06/06 - Gold, Utah and Omaha beaches.

thanks.

Andy - please feel free to help my friend - you most certainly are not stepping on any toes!

Peter - I dont know if these are of any use but I have these of F64.
With regard to Fishguard I have just the usual pictures as posted here.

Sadsac - I am looking into your request...

 

Cheers Cally....I think you should visit more

 

I intend to in the new year - I have just had a few unexpected commitments over the past fortnight or so!

Hi cally,

Thanks for the reply, yes I do indeed have the photos of Kingston and Fishguard in my collection. What I'm looking for is a photo of Kingston entering Suda Bay, Crete, the pic was taken from the hills over looking the Bay. I had a copy some 30+ years ago, it belong to a late uncle who served on Kingston. I lost the pic during a house move and have been looking ever since.

Wishing you a happy New Year

Regards
Peter.

Major thanks for this Ken. I will add this to the photo.

 

I would love to see any photos of HMS Warspite even better a close up of any ships crew...My step father Cyril Phillips was a leading stoker on board her.....

Best regards Lee F
