seaJane Posted 20 January , 2017 Share Posted 20 January , 2017 You remember I had a picture of Lionel C. P. Tudway, RN, HMS Sumana on the Tigris, from his cadet days at Naval College? I hope you don't mind if I add one of his classmates from the same group photograph. He had a cousin on the thread not too far back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seaJane Posted 23 January , 2017 Share Posted 23 January , 2017 Nope. People heading for the bows clue were going in the right direction but the wrong way. Try putting that together with the other clue, along with the fact that he has a cousin not very far back in the the sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
