| Robert, or Bob as he was known, was born in November 1911 and had married Kate Elizabeth Frost, Kitty, in 1935, but they had no children. Kitty remarried some years after his death. Bob had been in America in 1942, when HMS Regent was being refitted, and had recorded a record which was with Kitty's family, with whom he had been staying. His sister learned of this record in 2009 and asked if she could have a copy or recording from it, to hear her brother's voice again. Sadly this has not been possible. |

Commonwealth War Graves Commission
I have often looked for an opportunity of paying tribute to our submariners.
There is no branch of His Majesty's Forces which in this war has suffered the same proportion of total loss as our submarine service.
It is the most dangerous of all services.
That is perhaps the reason why the First Lord tells me that the entry into it is keenly sought by Officers and Men.
I feel sure the House would wish to testify its gratitude and admiration to our Submariners for their Skill - Courage and Devotion which has proved of inestimable value to the sustenance of our country.
Winston Churchill
