Stkr PO. James Alfred Sams MID

Royal Navy HMS Byrsa

from:Portsmouth

My father, James Sam was mentioned in dispatches in the King's Birthday Honours List in 1945. I have been researching but this is the only document I can find. Any information to fill in the blanks would be good. His rank was Stoker PO, and his service record before serving on HMS Byrsa is very sketchy. When he demobbed he moved back to Portsmouth and worked as a civil servant in the dockyard. He died in 1972 aged 60.
