AB. Peter Stanley Tomlinson
Royal Navy HMS Renown

(d.5th September 1944)
Peter Tomlinson was an uncle I never knew. He was killed in 1944 in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) and is buried in Trincomalee British War Cemetery in Sri Lanka. His death was something of a mystery as he was discovered, according to a letter received from the Captain of HMS Renown on which he was serving, with fatal head injuries in the harbour after being assigned to picket duties on board the ship. The letter is in my Mother's possession and is the only information which the family received regarding his death. He was aged 19 when he died and my Mother remembers her older brother with great fondness. RIP Uncle Peter I am proud to be your nephew.
