    Default Checking In for my Dad (Alan Avery)

    Hi all,

    Registered on site to see if I am able to locate any old crew mates of my dad's (Alan Avery). Sailed with British Merchant Navy after training at Vindicatrex (Gravesend) would have been around 1957. I will locate the names of his ships as well. In particular he has mentioned two men Cliff Seber and Tony Millen. There are many other men dad has spoken about. Thought if I could get the ball rolling on his behalf it would be a good starting place for his investigations.

    Thank you for the warm welcome Brian. Wishing everyone success in their endeavours!!
