HMS Rifleman

[newtonp]

I am looking for information on my late father's ship HMS Rifleman, a Royal navy minesweeper 1941-44. My father was Reginald Newton from Walsall, South Staffordshire. If anyone has any information I would be pleased to hear form you.

Hi newtonp
Go to the main site, Battleships-Cruisers, type the name in the search box and there you are Algerine class M/S's.
Good luck
Alan

My father Arthur Tucknott served on HMS Rifleman during WW2. I would be interested in any information about the ship and crew up until VJ Day.
Here is a picture of my father.
