    Rank:Greaser
    Date of Death:11/11/1942
    Regiment/Service:Indian Merchant Navy
    S.S. City of Ripon (Hull)

    ship details -http://uboat.net/allies/merchants/ships/2406.html
    grandads details - Arzid Ali (Indian) - Crew lists of Ships hit by U-boats - uboat.net

    Any details would be great!

    Hi Sabir,
    thanks for that and the interesting link of the sinking and great loss. Some of our experts may be able to help.
    Keep looking in as it is near weekend and it gets a little slow at weekend.
    Thanks for that
    Brian

    There may be a copy of a Discharge Book or Identity card with a photo in somewhere in the Official Records, maybe our experts could guide you. Just have to keep looking in for when they come on site.
    Cheers
