MGB 663

Postby Peter » Thu Oct 10, 2019 8:03 pm

Reading the In Memorial list this day October 10th it is with a deeper sympathy that I view the loss of MTB 663 and the death of Reg together with James Rowley and George Thakram.

Reg I knew very well as a shipmate we both served on MTB 243 and when MTB 243 paid off we both were given drafts: for Reg MTB 663, and for me MTB 647.

In these two photos Reg is at the extreme left in the picture of crew, and also on the left of the second inage.
