Harry Colburn
Royal Navy HMS Slinger
My Aunt Mabel met Harry Colburn when he visited Sydney on the HMS Slinger in 1945. They were infatuated with one another and spent as much time together as they could. Unfortunately, like many wartime romances it was destined to end. Harry sailed on his ship and eventually settled back home in England. Aunt Mabel was left with nothing more than a few photographs, Harry was never heard from again and Mabel never married.
