Title: Robert Hunter Smith - Leading Stoker
Post by: Brighton06 on Saturday 30 January 10 17:05 GMT (UK)

I am after some help on my grandfather. I understand he was a Leading Stoker in WW2 and was on the Minesweepers. I also know that he spent some time in Malta, however apart from that i know little else. Would anyone be able to help me in the right direction.
Many thanks

If you are the closest relative might be worth you looking at
