PO. James Mollison Lowson
Royal Navy HMS Royal Arthur
from:Dundee
I recently acquired a photograph of my father James Lowson at HMS Royal Arthur. I knew that he was in the R.N. during the 2nd WW but nothing else as it is something he never talked about. I suspect he was involved in Combined Operations as he had some memorabilia with that insignia on it. At his demob. he was suffering from a serious illness that at the time was diagnosed as jaundice, contracted from bad food. He also had some bad nightmares for a while about people drowning, which I suppose, is consistent with service in the Navy.
