HAROLD BERTRAM HENNESSAY.. I have just come across your website and was very interested to read about HMS Courageous. My father, Harold Bertram Hennessay, served on this ship from 3 April 1918 to 30 January 1919 initially as a Boy Teleg. and then an Ord. Teleg.

My father joined the Royal Navy in 1917. Reading from his Certificate of Service he was on the Impregnable, Ganges, Courageous, Pembroke, Emperior of India, Theseus and Grafton between 1917 and 1920. He left in 1922 and received a British War Medal and Victory Medal. I would like to know more about these medals as these were probably kept by his first wife and I had no knowledge of them until recently.

He returned in 1929 as a Steward and was on the Andora Star, Highland Pride (he was on the voyage when this ship was wrecked) and served out the remainder of his time in the navy on the Highland Monarch until 1934. I have a photograph of the Highland Monarch.

My father died in 1981 just before his 81st birthday. He was living in South Africa at the time. It was only when my mother died last year that I came across all his naval papers. I am his younger daughter, Diana Bolton and live in Perth, Australia.

p.s. My father's youngest brother, Jimmy Hennessay, was drowned on his first naval voyage when the vessel he was on sank with Lord Kitchener on board.
