Able Seaman Joseph Robert Jones
Royal Navy HMS Penelope
from:Chester
I have a book called "Our Penelope" pubilished in June 1942. It has lots of info and pictures of The Penelope. I also have photographs.
My late father served on her from 8th July 1941 until 28th Nov 1943. His name was Joseph Robert Jones his number JX175911.
I also have a newspaper cutting telling about when she arrived in Gibralter to have at least 1,000 shrapnel holes repaired.
I would like these items to go to a good home as the family do not want them. If you would like them please get in touch.
