Hi there, i hope someone can help me. I'm trying to find a photo for my father in law but cant ask him details as its for a christmas present. Can someone give me advice on the best place to find this photo? It's a passing out parade photo from HMS Ganges/Rally (either will do) from 1966. The only other details i could supply would be his name. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Tigger, you mention Ganges/Rally. Do you mean Ganges/Raleigh as they were both training bases or Stone frigates as they were better known?

Hi there Bob, thanks for replying to me. I'm guessing Ganges/Raleigh as those are the only names mentioned to me. I hope you can help me in some way as i know this picture would mean the world to him. Thanks

I should love to help you but all my pictures of Ganges are from the early fifties as I joined as a Boy seaman in 1952.
May I suggest that you go to the Ganges Association website and enter the forum. You can then put your request there. They are a harmless bunch and won't bite you ! You could also put your question to the Webmaster Clive and he would enquire for you.

Bob.
