    I was moved when I looked at these, and moved that you honour your lost shipmate today, after 65 years.

    Thanks for that Harry,

    I always think of him on December 13, never miss as I always telephone the South African lad who saved me, every year on that date.
    nearly 65 years ago. I wrote the full story in the `Voyage of the New Zealand Star` thread,
    I made a special trip to South Africa to find his grave in 2001. then ended up on the Esther Rantzen Show on BBC TV talking about it.
    Cheers
    Brian
