William Burns Macartney
Royal Navy HMS Campania
from:Glasgow
My Father, Willie Macartney was a fireman (engine room) on board the aircraft carrier HMS CamPania D48. He used to tell me stories about a Pendulum that would swing near it's limits, apparently measured ship's tilt in rough weather, think it was in the ship's mess room? He chatted about planes that would leave and not return and the extreme weather on convoy duty where they would chip ice to prevent build up. I was only a lad when we talked, we used to have documentation, but this was lost due to many house moves in later years.
