dorrie Posted 26 July , 2005 Share Posted 26 July , 2005 Whilst reserching a Retford man i came across John (Jack) Sutton 1st Classs Stker who died on 27/11/1918. ON CWGC his unit is described as P 67 any ideas please? Dorrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDick Posted 26 July , 2005 Share Posted 26 July , 2005 A P Class patrol boat - coastal defence, anti-submarine etc. His service papers should have the name of the depot ship from which it operated, with the boat's name alongside in brackets. Given date and location I assume he died of influenza. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
