The Crew HMS  St Lucia  1943

This is a picture of the crew of HMS Lucia taken around 1945. My father was a stoker aboard this ship from 1943 to 1945/46 (although he is not in this picture as he was duty at the time). I'm not sure where the picture was taken but my fathers navy records but him in Ceylon (Sri Lanka) about this time. I would love to be able to put some names to faces on this picture, and if anyone remembers my father from this time I would be happy for them to get in touch. My e - mail address is palmer@jones62.fsbusiness.co.uk
