list of officers. He has now been found and a record can be seen at this link. Some of the information gathered

Found him as Temporary Lieutenant (Special Branch) at HMS Victory III in late 1941. Will gladly add an entry for him.

If anyone has a photograph of grandfather it would be nice to let the RNVR have it for their site.

Hi Nic,
this is very interesting, thanks for putting this on the blog. I wonder why he was registered with the Leicestershire Regiment when he lived in Guildford?
