Hello all - trying to find information on HMS Rocket, WW2. My relative Ernie Matthew was in the Merchant Navy but seems to have been seconded into Royal Navy and served on the Rocket then on Invincible, Implacable or Indefatigible. Have found a picture on the net of a ship called 'Rocket' entering Pearl Harbour but was told he had done escort duty on Pacific convoys. Also believed to have docked in Japan.
Any info please on the Rocket or the how, why or when the Merchant Navy men became Royal Navy sailors
