Peter Godden
National Serviceman and a man of Bristol
27th January 1947 to 30th March 1949

This is Peter when 19 years of age, taken in 1947 as a Air Radar Mechanic in the Fleet Air Arm.

The following table outlines Peter's time in the Royal Navy

  This is Peter's crossing the line certificate for the 8th of October 1948.

  Every naval unit, whether ashore or afloat, issues its DAILY ORDERS. Normally they are 'naval', very 'naval' but on the odd occasion, they are written for an event. What follows the image of the Crossing the Line Certificate are the daily orders written for the 8th October 1948 and the Duty List.

  Note. The original copy of the daily orders is not suitable for scanning or the digital camera, so I have re-typed it.

  Peter died in late November 2010. His funeral took place in Bath on the 2nd of December. He was 82.
