Requests are often made for Squad Photos and the whereabouts of individual squad mates in the Guest Book, so I wondered if a page devoted solely to these request might be of help to our membership. It will be the responsibility of members to contact me with their requests and valid e-mail address, which will be linked to the entry. Please be brief and as specific as you can with your entries; a starting date of your course would be better than 'sometime in the Summer of...". Requests should be sent to 'Looking for.." .
To contact someone who has made an entry, click on their title name in red. If you have an entry up under your name, and subsequently change your e-address, please let me know.

Gordon was as you guessed from Scotland and 'Taff' was from Llanelli (did I spell that right?). It was a very eventful course because a food riot broke out with a demonstration by the recruits demanding more food. They massed on the gangway of the 'Vindi' banging their metal plates against the boarded up ship chanting for more. Some of the course 'jumped ship'. Two of them stole a rowing boat and were last seen disappearing down the Severn and another boy went 'over the wall' to join a passing circus. Gordon and I joined the 'Rhodesia Castle' to South Africa on our first trip and I have no news since then. Robin Whitehead R761830 is looking for contacts and anyone has a squad photo of Deck squad 4.9.61 to 10.11.61.

These ships included The Empire Pendennis, British Might, Empress of Australia and Fort Esperance. I have only just found out these facts after much searching of the National Archives. My Farther would have been around 17 years old in 1944 and I was very much hoping that you may have met him or known of him.
Below are some other names of that time, but this is of all
Merchant Seamen, and not just Vindiboys. ------------------------------------------------------------- George Burkitt R518367. I have been asked by the widow of George, if anyone who reads this page, sailed or trained with her late husband. He was a 'Deckie' and left the Vindi at the end of Oct. 1949.
