 Lt Harry Hunter OBE |
| Eng Lt Harry Hunter (OBE Military) served on HMS Barham during the Battle of Jutland. I have fortunately inherited his records of the Battle, life onboard ship, Liverpool drydock and his official (engineers) report of torpedo damage sustained - together with a tompian. Great website. |

| John McHugh |
Thank you to everyone concerned with this Web-Site.
You have helped fill in some of the blanks of grandad McHugh\'s memories.
He wouldn\'t recall any war stories in front of his wife or his daughter(my mother)but even though I was very young he would tell me this about his ship:-
The \'\'Brumm\'\'.
He was in the forward turret.
3 torpedoes hit.
Magazine went up.
Had to have oil pumped out of his stomach/lungs.
Thanks again |

| William \"Will\" Howitt |
My Uncle Will was a survivor of HMS Barham, where he served either as C.P.O. or P.O. Guns, taking after his Father who was Fleet Chief Guns in 1916 at Jutland, ( William George Howitt )
After the sinking, my Uncle could never be out in the rain without panicking, and would rush indoors, such was the trauma he suffered.
The poor man went to bed for an afternoon siesta, and died in his sleep of a heart attack.
He was a lovely, very clever man as I recall, dearly loved by all of his own family, and by his sisters. |
