WTel. Alfred Arthur Martyr
Royal Navy HMS Nigeria

(d.12th Aug 1942)
Alfred Martyr was killed in action on 12/08/1942 whilst serving on HMS Nigeria. I presumed then buried at sea. I see that the date is that of the attacks on the Convoy to relieve Malta, Operation Pedestal. The records show that the Nigeria was badly damaged in the attack.
Should anyone have further information on the incidents on that day or indeed any details regarding Alfred I would be very interested.
