Terry Denham Posted 8 July , 2003 Share Posted 8 July , 2003 Details of the deaths of RN men are held at the PRO and are available until the end of WW2. They are held in huge volumes of largely typewritten text. They give basic details including location, ship/base and detailed cause of death (inc nature of illness, method of suicide etc etc). They are held in ADM 104/127 to 149 (ratings only). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
