World War Two / Re: HMS Auckland 1940-1941

Hi.
My father survived the sinking of HMS Auckland in 1941. I do have a number of photographs of him + crew mates during WWII although they are not marked to identify which of his ships they are from. Although he died in 1982 I do remember he thought fondly of "the Auckland" and seemed to have happy memories of her and his shipmates.
Have a look at my website where I've posted the images and see if anyone there reminds you of your Arthur. I would be very pleased to know if they do:
