H.M.S. TYRIAN
My Father in law served on H.M.S.TYRIAN 1942/1946 . His name is Joseph William Wright C/KX 141308. STOKER. Recently I have come across his collection of photos, and his personal certificate of crossing the line King Neptune & co. showing different destinations and dates of the ships history. His photos include H.M.S. D 52 which i believe is Tyrian attached to the Pacific Fleet in 1945.
