Thanks doc this is a great way to be in contact with you all and thank you for your interest and help. I would really like to speak to Ron he joined up with my day to the navy and I believe they were quite close. My dad fathered a child in n z and I believe Ron may be able to help me trace the person that would be in their mid 50's now. It is probably a bit of a long shot but definitely worth a try. I will like you say contact Brighton police as my next step and continue to stay in touch with you guys .
