Christmas on HMAS Melbourne






























This probably belonged to Bill English, connected to my grandmother by virtue of the fact that Margaret English, his aunt, was the wife of grandma's Uncle Ted. I can remember visiting Bill when I was a youngster.

Anyway, it sounds like a grand Christmas Dinner. And it occurred while the Melbourne was on duty between the West Indies and New York. The Melbourne's history can be found here.
