Hi Deep Sea, what does Dis A stand for?
Discharge Book No. This is what all the ships her served on would have been recorded in.

I'll check my files, but I think I may have a copy of the Survivors Report from the loss of this ship and probably mentions the ships Master losing his hand. Will update when I can.
Keith the only reference number on Alberts medal papers is his ship number ☹️
There is a Ref Number at the NA of BT 334 Box 0097 and also Box 0098 Page 38 this may help ?
Also there is reference on Him that says the Following
Ashton On Mersey Hardwick House Possibly the School he once attended ??
Missing supposedly Drowned.
Cheers
DeepSea I’ve pm’d you with my email address. Looking forward to reading the report
Hi there, sorry i know this is an old post (never joined a forum before took me a while to figure out what to do!) I've been doing research on my grandad, and remember him telling stories about his time in the Merchant Navy, but only recently discovered he was on board the SS Phidias. It would be incredible if i could also get a copy of the Survivors report? i'll DM my email address if so! thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Sent Survivors Report for Phidias by email.
My grandfather was also a survivor of the SS Phidias, are you able to send me this report as well so I can add it to my records? I'll also DM my email address. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I was also told he was later on a second ship that was sunk during WWII, though I haven't found the name of that one yet. Possibly the ST Margaret
