PO. Walter Ernest Smith
Royal Navy HMS Lanka
from:Kingston upon Hull
(d.9th Apr 1942)
Walter Ernest Smith served as a PO Rigger at HMS Lanka. While doing research on Ancestry for my family tree yesterday, 21st February 2020, my great-uncle's name came up in a hint and the hint was that the Commonwealth Graves Commission had his name on a register and he is buried in the Trincomalee War Cemetery in the former Ceylon.
