GLARAC - GLorious, ARdent & ACasta.

(above) HMS Glorious, HMS Ardent and a Fairey Swordfish, a painting by Ivan Berryman copies and other naval art available from -http://www.ivanberryman.co.uk This site, has links for those connected with HMS Glorious, HMS Ardent & HMS Acasta. These three ships were lost in action on 8th June, 1940, with the loss of over 1,500 lives. I have collated some information that I have received about some interesting communications from June 1940 and I have placed it on the pages titled "Document from the Past" on this site. If you have any queries or information you wish to send, please e-mail me on this site and I will try to deal with them as I get them. Many thanks, Graeme Sandford (grandson of Victor Vincent McCullen (HMS Acasta) PHOTO REQUEST If you have any crew photos of those lost on Glorious, Ardent and Acasta, or those that survived, please contact Gary Martin at the following address: garymartin717@btinternet.com Any help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
