Stoker William Henry Mercer
Royal Navy HMS Nigeria
My father, Stoker William Henry Mercer, served on HMS Nigeria. He saw service on the North Atlantic convoys and was aboard when the ship was torpedoed in the Mediterranean. He spent time in the USA where the ship was repaired. He was also on the Nigeria when it sailed to Ceylon and Australia, but I do not know when this was. Dad passed away in 2003. I would appreciate any information/links anyone can provide relating to his time on the Nigeria.
