All I can say Denis is the ones I sailed with intergrated into the British community of the day and especially on merchant ships with no bother or very little and never saw any as sea lawyers as was later seen by other nationality’s. Many did this I suppose through marriage , so going through public census records and looking for Latvian or Estonian names may be the long laborious way of doing it. I know the Latvian or Estonian ex RAF
Person that I knew out here who has since died was very loyal to England and especially the family who took him in
After he escaped the communist regime set up in his own country at the time and would put a lot of Englishmen to shame as to his loyalty. The UK today however is a different country what was with the mainly unwanted and forced number of illegal immigrants residing in the country so maybe today they hold different views ? Cheers JS.
