I was wondering whether the Navy or Seamans Assocation would sponsor me to
go out an visit my father's grave in Singapore. I have often thought about
looking into it but would not know where to start.
My home town when I was born was Brentford in Middlesex, from then when my
father died we moved to Hounslow also in Middlesex and I am now residing by
the sea in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex.
Regards Penni
