ABOUT
Signed by the author.
A story of courage, endurance and human feelings.
The few ships New Zealand had to man in WW2 employed only approximately half of the volunteers available to the Navy.
Naval personnel not required for manning home-based ships were drafted overseas to serve in Royal Navy vessels all over the world. Altogether five New Zealanders served on the author's ship, HMS Aurora. This story is intended to be an amalgam of their service, covering the period from 1941 to 1945.
