My wife's grandfather served on the Uganda as the radar man. I remember him talking about the time Churchill was aboard and how he wished he had asked for the a cigar but when he was finished smoking it, but I think he said all he could muster was a polite "good morning sir" as he went about his duties.I have a picture of the the crew at dock alongside the ship, quite impressive. I'm not sure how to upload a photo to this site.

Eric, I have finally come across a photo of my father, Murdo MacLeod, who served on the HMCS Uganda. I would like to send or upload the photo but not sure how to go about it.

I am remembering my father this special day as well. Gerald Milne Moses took many fine pictures when he was aboard HMCS Uganda, I did this part of my photo website as a Remembrance Day project to honor my father and the other fine men who served on HMCS Uganda. If you have any photos you would like to share, I would be glad to post them here to remember your father as well. Best regards, Eric
