Synopsis: My father was an ordinary man who led an extraordinary life. He, like many others of his age who went to war to fight for King and Country, did not question why, but knew that it was his duty...he did not lack daring. This is a book of Bert's experiences. * Joining the Royal Navy as a 'boy' in 1917. * Twelve years service in the Middle and Far East in the twenties. * His recall in 1939. * Survival after being blown up in the North Sea, and his five years as a PoW. Much of this book is compiled from his detailed war log kept during that time.
