Owerri - Captain Greenwood
Any crew members of Owerri during Captain Greenwood's time about? C/O George "Tony" Paton, 2/O Spanish Frank Waring, 3/O Alistair Faulds,
Purser Keith Ritch, C/E Arthur "Sexy" Brown, 2/E Derrick "Geordie" Barron, 3/E Can't Remember, 4/E Tom Foley, Lecky Dave Patterson, C/Stwd Jimmy "Mad" Mooney, 2/Stwd Johnny Drew. Happy ship - can still remember Derrick Barron filling a suitcase with nuts, bolts and shackles doing a dummy run to the top of the gangway to see how fast he could make it - this one week from home - talk about the "Channels"!

Sorry, Alan, I never sailed on the Owerri, but I did know Al Faulds when he was a cadet, and Keith Ritch too, from way back then!
