Chairman’s Christmas Message

As we come to the end of another year our thoughts are with those who have

 crossed the bar In 2011 and those loved ones they left behind, also those on the

 bed of sickness may they have a speedy  recovery to good health.

 We would like to wish you all

A Merry Christmas and a healthy and Prosperous New Year.

Bert and Linda Stutt.

The following e-mail was received recently by the Secretary:-

                        From: terry dukes

                    Sent: Sunday, September 05, 2010 4:41 AM

                    To: secretary@surveyships.org.uk

                    Subject: H.M.S. Dampier

 

                    Hi Joe
                               I am an ex-dockie from Portsmouth now living in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah ,(Borneo) Malaysia.

                     I spend most of my free time tracking down shipwrecks around these parts (mainly Japanese from WWII)

                     and I have just come across that HMS Dampier was stationed in these waters during the 50's and surveyed a few wrecks.
                    Would you know how I could possibly get hold of any of her findings or any crew members who were around in those days.

 

                    Cheers

                    Terry Dukes
