Hi my name is Paul, my grandfather was in the Royal Marines during world war 2 and I would like to find out what he did as he never spoke about it before he died (December 1988) I know he was on the hms caradoc and hms duke of York if anyone can help that would be great thanks.
Welcome aboard Paul. Dunno if this will help much, but each of the ships you mention have a wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Caradoc_(D60) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Duke_of_York_(17)
Welcome to the forum, Paul. I wish you luck in your search! I know how frustrating it can be to look up things from your grandparents past. It is always a reward when you find a little here and there!
