Ypresman, more re CRISP ;

CRISP Thomas N/E Skipper RNR 83P046

HMT I'll Try Commodore Lowestoft 23.03.17 G

Action with Enemy Submarines 01.02.17 DSC

Engaged in action an enemy submarine on the morning of the 1st February, 1917, and damaged her by gunfire. Their Lordships' consider that Skipper Crisp acted with coolness and displayed good judgement during the action.

Sad loss all round - what ???

Hi

The 'Sailing' Trawlers extract indicates that a seat was created from the timbers of the G& E. Out of interest does it go on to say where this seat was placed ?
