HMS Rajputana
« on: Friday 09 June 06 18:56 BST (UK) »
My Grand uncle Stanley Berryman died aboard HMS Rajputana on 13 April 1941 when she was hit by a torpedo from U108  and was sunk off the coast of Iceland.
I have found  great web sites on the sinking of Rajputana and her history and even on U 108, but I would like to find a crew list for her, any ideas where I might view one?
Cheers

As far as I am aware. His Majesty's Ships in WW2 did not have crewlists. uboat.net crew lists for HMS RAJPUTANA  refers only to those who were lost in the action. 43 men out of a total compliment of 326?
