    Default Eric Jacombe

    Good evening all, I have just joined today. I was on the training ship Vindicatrix in 1958 and a member of the association of Vindi boys.
    Does anybody out there know a chap called Richard Andrews, he was a mate at the Vindi [deck dept] and wondered how he got on after leaving the camp all those years ago.
    Regards Eric

    G'day Eric and welcome to the site. One way you may find out about your mate is to list the ships you sailed on and dates if you have them. Nevr know some one may remember you and be able to assist. So sit back with a cold one and enjoy the voyage.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
