Hi Brian,
I joined Her at Dingle Oil Jetty.Liverpool.29.9.60. So a bit after Jimmy. This was my first ship after the Seamans Strike (unofficial.N.S.R.M.)
Good luck with your search.

Masters name was Jones . We did WIndies,Argentina then Ras Tanura -Japan with aviation spirit for USN in Korean War. Long trip shore leave totalled about ten hours in as many months, Didnt have a haircut in all that time.....

Hi Laurie

Looking for any info on my deceased father Thomas Allan Frankland who was on the Cadillac 3rd Engineer. I have recently found his discharge book and he was on the Cadillac 15 Oct 1951 to 6 Feb 1952. It was his last shop before he left the service.

Its a long shot but you may have sailed with him. Either way I hope you are well and taking good care of yourself

Bet regards Ann-Marie Frankland

I see you were on the Esso Glasgow in 1967.
What months were you on the Glasgow?

Also the Lincoln ?

Hello William. Nice to meet another Esso man.. A bit after my time though, although I was on the Winchester, and I would think that the Portsmouth was obviously the rebuild after she exploded.
Regards,
Colin

I spent some time in various Esso ships,in the early 50's. Most of them were T2s. Many of them under the Panamanian flag. Before the time of you youngsters I guess. They were pretty good ships. T2s weren't comfortable though.
