PO. George Shallcross
Royal Navy HMS Drake
from:Plymouth
My father, George Shallcross served in the Royal Navy.
I recently discovered his medals - one of which apparently was for long service and good conduct.
Father rarely, if ever, spoke of the war but I do know he was aboard S.S. Karanja when it was bombed, torpedoed and sunk somewhere off North Africa.
