My Father was Philip Kelly, First Radio Officer on Sepia from 1940 - 1944 (mentioned on your site) and his Memoirs state his total love for this ship. His time on her and the mysteries that surround his WWII experiences are at the centre of my research. I have been through all Sepia Log Books at the National Archives but the 1942 one I really need is missing. |
