July 26, 2025Jul 26 #1 I've recently purchased a wonder piece of history from the family in the UK. I have digital copies of some of his paperwork, and I'm trying to piece together his history or any information I can come up with. Problem is, here in the US - it is difficult to get this information. Any help would be appreciated. He was in the 766th Flotilla. He enlisted in 1942 and was discharged in 1946.... His information: Nathaniel “Nobby” Carter 383646 Royal Navy 766th Landing Craft Flotilla HMS Collingwood HMS Arethusa (Normandy) HMS Victory Thank you. Purchased: US LF&C MK1 Knife, which the sailor traded for and acquired from a US soldier prior to the invasion of Sicily
