Introduction
by Don Kindell
|
|
|
This data base of Royal Navy personnel killed or died began in
the same way as my naval events chronology, as a very specific, narrow
project. The known and published Admiralty Communiqués detailed the
names, ranks or ratings and ship of larger HM ships sunk during the
war. However, my interest was to expand my 1940 Norwegian campaign
information which included many smaller ships. Through David Brown
of the Naval Historical Branch and naval researcher Arnold Hague, we
decided to use the Admiralty Miscellaneous Communiqués which listed names
of those killed or died in smaller ships that were sunk and in all ships
that were damaged. Through the war, 76 of these Miscellaneous
Communiqués were issued, which also gave the same information on wounded
and prisoners of war, but this latter material is for another project.
The primary concern of the original computer database, which in
its entirety originally covered 1914 to 1982, was
to collect together the Naval personnel into a form where they could be
studied by date, ship, or person's name. Much of the information is
contained in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site, but in a form
accessible only by the person's name or by a search of cemeteries.
However, there is independent and updated information, not contained in
CWGC, which has been obtained from the death ledgers prepared by the
Admiralty for officers and ratings.
No longer, do I have to search for those officers and men killed
in the bombing of HMS PELICAN in April 1940, nor do you.

Notes
If a casualty was seen by witnesses to have died or been killed,
he or she is described as such. If the person was never seen again, they
are described as Missing Presumed Killed (MPK) in wartime or Missing
Presumed Dead (MPD) in peacetime.
