I have been trawling the Midlands and beyond to find a venue worthy of our Association 2014 Reunion, Hotels in Stafford, Derby, Stratford upon Avon, Stoke on Trent and even Southport have been contacted, I am now waiting for their prices and sweeteners, I will put forward the top three very soon for you to decide.
We have had loads of returns of best wishes for Christmas from the Leander boys including Mick O'Carrol ex Jupiter POMEM(M) from the 1977 Jubilee Review era who is just about to leave the RNZ Navy.
After recent stories of Veterans passing away without anyone to attend their funeral, this page allows people to post details of funerals of Veterans so that people local to the funeral can attend and honour them.
I have replied to say that Ernie Dew was not on our Crew List when the Jupiter sank, I also gave him 2 websites that may help him, can you remember Ernie?

Comment: Hi Ken
My father Ernest (Ernie) George Dew passed away a few years ago and I still have his photographs of his time during the war.
I believe he was on the Jupiter and Prince of Wales and spent some time in Australia.
I was just enquiring as to where I would able to obtain some further details.
