AbleSea. Alfred Gorbutt

Royal Navy Cook HMS Royal Arthur

from:Paull nr Hull, East Yorkshire

My Dad, Alfred Gorbutt, trained at HMS Royal Arthur. He is 4th from the right on the second row in this photo, there might be some one who would recognize a relative on the photo.

My Dad passed away 24 years ago but I still have his Naval documents and it states that he was an assistant cook. He was on the Royal Arthur from 31st July to 2nd September 1941. This was his 1st base of service. He then went on to serve his time through the Second World War of which he served on Mine sweepers. He was demobbed on 28th January 1946. His final base was H.M.S Victory. I have some photos that were taken while he was in service during the war.
