Erm, not quite sure where I'm supposed to put this so I'm going to stay safe and put it in here.
I recently found out, during the weekend just passed, from a Great Aunt that my great-grandfather was a Stoker in the Royal Navy. I was quite excited to find this out, especially as it's what I've applied to join as, or well it's not a Stoker anymore is it, ET(ME).
I was having a look at something alike to a service record that she still had and noticed that during the WW2, he spent most of his time serving on the HMS Europa (its the only one I could remember after I got home, actually).
I was just wondering if anyone could help me find out anything about it. I've already Googled it, but only found pretty basic information about its comissioning, and being renamed from Prembroke X to HMS Europa, but I was hoping to find out a bit more, where it went and what it did during the time he served on it etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a bundle,
