Jones, Peter David Victor Born: 16th Oct, 1920.
Died: 28th Jul, 1945.
Lieutenant Aged: 24
from Southsea, Hampshire
The son of Edward Victor Jones (an insurance manager) and Agnes Jones (nee Harland). At the time of the 1921 Census Peter was at home with his parents at 38, Shafmoor Lane, Hall Green, Birmingham and his elder sister Eileen and brother Kenneth Norman.

Peter joined the Royal Navy and was promoted to Acting Sub Lieutenant on 23rd August 1942. In February 1943 he was serving in the Submarine Depot Ship HMS Forth. Promotion to Lieutenant followed on 16th August 1943.

On 20th September 1943 he was appointed to the Submarine Depot Ship HMS Cyclops 'for Submarines' and on 4th December 1943 Peter Jones was appointed to HMS STATESMAN 'as First Lieutenant'. This was followed by an appointment to Submarine HMS Stubborn 'as First Lieutenant' in April 1944.

On 13th July 1945 HMS Stubborn left Fremantle for a 10th War Patrol with orders to operate in the southeast of Java after stopping off at Onslow, Western Australia to 'top up' with fuel on 16/17th July. Several small ships were sunk and, on 27th July at 1950 Stubborn went alongside a junk in position 08°05'S 118°03'E.

Peter. Jones and L/Sea Kennedy boarded to investigate the cargo. Whilst manoeuvring to obtain a position to get out as soon as possible if needed, the junk broke adrift. It was not possible to close it again in the shallow water.

L/Sea Kennedy was able to swim to Stubborn but Peter Jones was not able to as the distance became too great. Peter Jones was told by megaphone that Stubborn would wait for him to return. He was searched for during the night and following day but he was never seen again and he was listed 'missing presumed killed'.

Peter Jones was the husband of Doris Caroline Jones (nee Butcher) who he had married in Gosport in the 3rd Quarter of 1943.

Commonwealth War Graves Commission

A Tribute To Submariners

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
