Re: John Buck, Eldesr & Fyffes boats
Many thanks, Doc, for coming up with John Buck's previous ship, the Cheyenne. Would you know if this was also an Elders & Fyffes boat?

Re: John Buck
Hi Maggi
Think the Cheyenne was of the Anglo American Corporation she was a Tanker.
There were two but the first was Sunk.
