My father, Robert Clark joined the Royal Navy as a boy sailor in 1936 when he signed up for 12 years. He was an Anti Aircraft gunner using multi-barrel Pom Pom guns.
Dad served on a number of different ships including HMS Hood when WW2 broke out. He served on HMS Oribi during Operation Archery on the raid on Norway where he was awarded the DSM. He joined HMS Sirius in May 1942 and served in the Mediterranean for the next 2 years and left HMS Sirius after D-day. He was a surviving AA bridge gunner during the bombing late in 1943.
