Signalman Royden Wells

Royal Navy HMS Frobisher

from:Ferndale, Rhondda

My father, Royden Wells, served on HMS Frobisher from March 1944, embarking from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) in spring 1944, through the Suez Canal to UK, and served on Frobisher until it was decommissioned as a training vessel. He was on board through the D-Day Landings, and was a signalman. He then served on HMS Pytchley until the war ended.

He died in 2010 at the age of 87, but always spoke fondly of the warships he had served on. My mother still has a replica plaque/emblem of the vessels, and b&w photos of the ships.
