His son writes: "He
left the RN in 1960 having joined as an AB in 1939, aged 15. His last base was
at TEE (Torpedo Experimental Establishment) in Greenock, Scotland. At one point
he was the youngest non-commissioned officer in the RN. I seem to remember he
served continuously on the aircraft carrier Indomitable for 18 months between
approx. 1955/57. He was based in Trincomalee in approx. 1951/52." |

POW in Italian captivity
[Peter was an accomplished escaper, and got
as far as stealing a boat at Bari before being sent to the punishment camp that
was the Italian equivalent of Colditz Castle (Campo 5 at Gavi). In 1943, he was on a train in
Italy being transported to a camp in Germany after the Italian surrender. Peter
was one of a small group who decided to jump from the train. The last to leave
the train, he was shot and killed on 14 September 1943, near Allessandria,
Piacenza. Identified only by his naval jersey and leather belt, Peter was buried
in the Italian civil cemetery at Corvino San Quirico. There is some doubt as to
the identity of the grave but Peter's name is commemorated in the college chapel
at Dartmouth. Mentioned as a keen escaper in George Millar's book 'Horned
Pigeon', Peter was described by his best friend from the punishment camp - a
fellow escaper - as "The bravest person I ever knew."] |
