    Hi Haze, Dominic must have joined the ship my father was a cadet on back in '44. He joined the Samspeed in Glasgow on 4/4/44 and was discharged in Liverpool on 29.10.44, sadly my father passed away in 2008. I hope this snippet adds to the jigsaw !!!

    Regards

    Dave

    Just wondering here Hazel
    I find a D Casey with Gunner Number 1135036 Royal Atillery WW2 on Forces War Records ,could this possibly be him as well??
    If he had another Number of that to his Merchant Navy one ,is it possible that he was actually in the RA for a short spell , that is separate from the MN??
    In that case he would have a record of his time there.
    This is all just may be ??
    Cheers


    Just reading up more on him that you posted I THINK?
    cHEERS

    Hunting Wartime Records (World War Two) Page 1 RootsChat.Com

    There seems to be so much on him and Yet there is still so much not knwn,i get more and more confused as i go,i pity you Hazel. Why did he have two Discharge Numbers?? What was he about?? A real puzzle.

    Hi Doc,

    Thanks for the info about forces War Records - I shall look into that!

    Now you have successfully confused me- not that it is all that hard to do LOL! As far as I ma aware I do not have a discharge number for him. There is not
    one on his CRS10 which is the only formal service record I have for him!

    Hazel

    p.s. He did not appear under Casey on Zaandam.

    This post appears to have been updated by Mike Hall? Was it Mike that entered the discharge number? To the best of my knowledge I have never had a discharge number for him. Thanks
