Many of the members of the electrical and electronic industries have served in the Royal Navy, and I am looking for those who served in the Electrical Branch to join their Association.

Only launched last year, with the aim of reuniting those who served together, we already have hundreds of members. Old shipmates are linking up via the membership lists. The most recent is from the Electrical Mess of HMS Arethusa’s First Commission in 1965.

We have members who have only recently retired or finished their time in the Navy and are therefore still at work, to those who were in when the Electrical Branch was formed in 1946.

May I appeal to any reader who is ex-Royal Naval Electrical Branch to drop me a line to the address provided below, or email me at mike.crowe1@btinternet.com with your name, address, nickname, Service Number if you can remember it …. cough cough! And your favourite draft of ship or shore establishment, along with where you would most like to find old friends from. And then be prepared to turn the clock back and swing the lamp! Looking forward to hearing from you.
