  • He looks like Gene Kelly !

  • I have been searching for geneology information. My grandfather, Walter Miller also served on this ship during WWII.  He died in 1952 and unfortunately my dad, (Walter's son) died in 1988. I have so little connections living in Florida in the US. Thanks for posting this. If anyone remembers Walter Miller, please contact me mkw65@yahoo.com

  • Hi, Nice to find something on Youtube relating to WW2 HMS Sheffield as my grandfather served as a petty officer on the ship and told me many story's about the sinking of the battleship Scharnhorst and the locating of the Bismark.

  • Alec is my Uncle, one of our unsung hero's, a terrific bloke, I love him very much,& cant speak Highly enough of him,he has been trying to tell his story for many years,please pick up a copy of this Book,the comments these people make about what they think of Britain now is very interesting, I now live in Alaska, you can see my videos by typing "steveg7esd" into your search engine.
