Commander John McGregor OBE Royal Navy Crossed the Bar on August 12th 2025 at the age of 88. After a varied naval career, which included high pressure jobs in nuclear submarines, John McGregor was appointed as Engineer Commander of HMS Fearless in March 1982. At the time he may have thought that this would be a comparatively relaxing job, but all that changed when Fearless sailed with the Task Force for the Falklands War.
During the occupation of World War II, the owner of a Dutch shipping port is ordered to attend an interview with the head of the Gestapo.
His yard has almost completed two submarines and the Nazis are anxious to have them finished and fully operational. They offer to reinstate him if he agrees, which he does.
But what the Nazis do not know is that he is planning to double cross them and take the ships to England, if he can. Starring Ralph Richardson, Googie Withers and Esmond Knight.
