Add Information to Record of a Person who served during the Second World War on The Wartime Memories Project Website

251444 CPO. John Hayes Royal Navy HMS Palomaris from:Chester John Hayes was my Father. As a child I listened to many stories my Father told me re the PQ17 Convoy to Russia. He served on the HMS Palomares. As he grew older he tended not to want to talk about his life and experiences in the Royal Navy during WWII. When the war ended my Father joined up as a Firefighter for Chester city Fire Service. Anyone would have thought, that spending the previous 6 years fighting a war and serving on the horrendous Arctic Convoy, that he would have chosen a less dangerous career to pursue in peacetime. Well he climbed ladders and fought fires and served his time until retirement with the Fire service.
