My late father, John Pountney, was a 20 year old seaman on the Repulse when she was sunk. I believe he was a gunner on one of the secondary guns. I'm
afraid I know little about them as Father never put any notes on the
backs of the photos. I know he was a boxer so that probably explains the
two shots of the boxing match, he might well have been one of the
participants. Bob

If anyone can identify anyone in these pictures, please let me know, I can supply larger versions of the boxing matches, in greater detail. |
