HELP!
I have been trying for some years now to trace my fathers service in the UK Merchant Navy. He stated he was sunk 3 times and gave the MN up in 1943 to join the RAF. I have his RAF records and they also coinfirm that he had on going treatment for burns, these are believed to have occured the last time he was sunk.
He may have gone by the name of either Crowther or Macaulay as well as De Santanna. I am trying to find out when and where he was sunk and which merchant vessels he served on?
Please, if anyone can help I would be most grateful.
