Able Sea. Charles Gilbert Broome

Royal Navy HMS Manchester

from:Birmingham

My granddad, Able Seaman Charles Broome, was interned at the Laghouat POW Camp in Algeria after the sinking of HMS Manchester. A silver lining of his internment, if there could ever be such a thing, is that when on compassionate/recuperation leave in Scotland after being freed by the American Army, he met my grandmother (a serving naval nurse at the time)...and the rest, I guess, is history.
