Stoker Robert "Hoot" Gibson . Royal Navy HMS Penelope from Newcastle (d.May/June 1942) My father's brother, Robert, followed my grandfather into the Royal Navy in 1939 much against my grandfathers will as he was sure war was about to break out. Robert had served his apprenticeship on Tyneside as a Turner but was determined to join up. He consequently joined the ship's company of HMS Penelope as a stoker. Very sadly Robert was mortally wounded in 1942 of Malta and although brought home never recovered and died in Newcastle aged just 21. If anyone remembers Robert whose nickname was "Hoot" after the cowboy hoot Gibson! Please drop a line or email. My father would love to hear from you I'm very sure.

Oiler/Bander William Albert Gibson . Royal Navy from 33 Marine Street, Oldham William Gibson served in the Royal Navy. There was only one story he ever told, that my mum recalls. He didn't talk about the war, only this story. During a supply drop to the Island of Malta, he recalled watching all the Maltese people on the dockside, awaiting supplies from the ship. In all the commotion, a young boy suddenly fell off the dock into the water next to the ship. Sadly, the boy did not survive, he was crushed between the dock and the ship. We know this would have stayed with him until the end of his life, he had a heart of gold and would see no harm come to anyone.
