 James Pratt |
 Jim Pratt Was a C.P.O in the Naffi on board the Barham when it was sunk.. His brother Thomas (teddy) was lost in the sinking at the tender age of 18.. Jim is still alive but is now rather frail.. He is now 94. My young grandaughter age 10 is now interested in the story and her school will be doing a project on it.. so the memories live on. For all those brave souls who sacrificed so much for us.. |

I have just been sent a small Handkerchief with a motif of HMS Barham (see attachment) that a cousin found in a charity shop. My father was a Royal Marine on HMS Barham from about May 1938 until August 1940 when he joined HMS King George V.
Is this a genuine HMS Barham memento? The lilac colour seems strange to me and the machine emboidery is not of the best quality. The materiel may be of silk but not sure. What can you tell me about it?

| Furthermore to my uncle Richard Frederick Gobby i knew him as my uncle dick who was a boy marine on the Barham at the age of 16 to 17 in the battle of Jutland not much older i gather than the boy Cornwell my uncle was also born in the east end in Bethnal Green.But how about this for a strange coinsidence spooky really he was cremated at Barham crematorium near Canterbury in 1984 even the clergy at the chapel in the crematorium commented on this .He only moved there from the Chase Clapham under protest as my auntie had relations in Tankerton Kent |

Hello,
I am the nephew of Frank Cooper Have just visited the H.M.S. Barham website for the first time.
Am amazed at content my late mother always talked about Frank i believe he was a fine sportsman and represented the Navy at sport.
Am looking at photos to try to find picture! At some point my grand parents ran the Festing Hotel where my mum was born in the upstairs bedroom facing east 3rd floor! The family did move to Felpam/bognor area. Recently found picture of Barham in a Gibraltar photo shop. Would love to be involved. Peter Hall. |

Had it been possible to attend the Service this year I could not think of any other place to be, unfortunately Australia is quite a trip. I send my warmest thoughts,and best wishes to all those able to attend. I had the good fortune to visit the Abbey in 1998 and was moved beyond belief. My Uncle\'s sister is still alive, and often speaks of him and his love of the sea even as a child. Yours truly

The service at St Anns Church at the naval church in HM Naval Base Posrtsmouth was well attended by Association members . CPO Bob Woodgate paraded our Standard with great dignity and it was accepted by the Chaplin of the Fleet . .
On behalf of myself I should again like to thank you all for all help over my period as secretary and look forward to meeting you all again at Westminster on the 24th November 2012. A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS AND A GREAT 2012 to everyone throughout the world and look forward to peace for all. Thabnk you all |
