Joined Comus Jan 1957 and then took Cossack out of Singapore Dockyard hands in summer 1957. Joined Comus as Electrical Artificer 4th Class and was rated 3rd class on return to HK end Nov or early Dec 1957. Returned home June 1958. Returning home from Cossack in 1958 I wondered what life would bring me. Irene & I had planned our wedding for 12^th July on the assumption that the full eighteen months would be served in the Far East. As it happened I was on the first flight out to join Comus in Mombasa and someone somewhere defined I should be on the first flight home. Upshot was that we were married as planned and had our weeks honeymoon with just three days to spare before reporting to my new location! We had also assumed I might well spend at least some time in Collingwood, being an EA and set out to find and start the process of buying a house on the outskirts of Gosport. Draft chit arrived by post before our wedding and it was to Daedalus, which you will recall was a Fleet Air Arm base. Keep “schtum and hope Doug,” as it was nearer our new house than Collingwood. I duly arrive at the gates and into the Regulating Office when I pointed out I was General Service. RPO was confused, then a penny dropped and he recited the initials F.D.M.T.U. I had no idea what he was talking about and explanation followed:- Flight Deck Machinery Trials & Training Unit .The Unit was on the far side of the airfield in some old Nissen huts. Arrival at the Unit transpired I was to be one of two EA’s on the strength and it was to be our job to take over the instrumentation of Steam Catapult calibration trails and analysis of the results, from the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Bedford. Our boss was a Lt. Cdr. (E) who had a whole group of engineering personnel who would be “driving” the catapults during the trials. My first introduction was alongside RAE staff on Victorious sea trials shooting off each type of aircraft which might be carried and calibrating the catapult in relation to aircraft load and required steam pressure. While we were at sea an EA4 who had been in the group was drafted out and on our return my colleague was also drafted – to Marlinga in Oz, for A bomb testing support. Not a happy bunny but neither was our boss who spoke bluntly to “Drafty” explaining that he would not be able to carry on taking over from RAE if personnel were moved out. I stayed on the Unit for two years an unheard of shore time for an EA! Apart from the catapult trials some of our unit were also involved in training Fleet Air arm flight deck personnel in the procedures prior to and during catapulting. Some years before someone had built a large (very large) model of a carrier and ERA’s had built a replica of the steam catapult’s predecessor into the model. My colleague & I were tasked with a dual job of designing and fitting circuits to enable this to function in the same way as the Steam Catapult At the same time a line drawing cross section of the steam and hydraulic functions had been built up on a vertical board and we had to ensure valves and other functions operated at the same time as the main model. All culminating in a model aircraft being shot off on a catenary wire. We found an air station to be a gold mine for bits & pieces to do the job. I wasn’t shore based or at home all the time though. Dockyard trials on the carriers, where wheeled buoyant deadloads were shot off , recovered by tender and craned back, were followed by sea trials launching real aircraft. I spent time on Centaur, Ark Royal, both in Devonport and at sea, Hermes Portsmouth, Karel Doorman (Dutch) at sea , Minais Gerais (Brazilian – in a Dutch shipyard), Independencia (Argentinian) Bonaventure (Canadian) both in Portsmouth. In addition some minimum activity on Albion & Bulwark. In Portsmouth and at sea. My colleague also went on Clemenceau (French, in Brest) Our other job was to train other Navies on the electrical circuits of the catapults. Got a bit interesting in translations! The Indian Navy personnel were fine with English but the British interpreter for the French was a huge joke as he had no technical knowledge at all. We also instructed on one of the first digital computers which calculated the speed aircraft were launched at. After all this with experience gained I got a draft chit to submarines but I failed the medical. Again our blunt boss suggested to Drafty that experienced gained would be lost so I got a pier head to Victorious my last sea going billet. I remained in Victorious until 1963 first as acting CEA for 2 Deck and above (which of course include catapults) and at the end of my time there as acting CEA for the long refit. Leaving in May ’63 or there abouts I went into Collingwood instructing in the Servo Section until I took my 12 in November 1963.

Seely. The Hon. D. P. HESPERUS 1941 Lt BAZELY March 1943-1^st Lt QUICKMATCH KEMPENFELT COSSACK 1958-1959 Commander RN Commanding Officer MERCURY 1960 AJAX 1963-1965 Captain Lord Mottistone, David Patrick Seely was born on December 16 1920, the fourth son of the 1st Lord Mottistone. David’s godparents were Winston Churchill and the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII); he entered Dartmouth as a 13-year old cadet. Died November 24 2011 aged 90 First Patron of the RN Amateur Radio Society (1985) Was a successful naval officer, businessman and supporter of the charity SANE. As Lt David Seely, he joined the destroyer Hesperus in early 1941 (commanded by Donald Macintyre ) Seely’s first three months in Hesperus were spent on Atlantic convoy duty. In May 1941 the ship was part of a relief convoy to Malta and delivered aircraft to the island. She was also part of the destroyer escort of the battlecruiser Renown and the carrier Ark Royal in the hunt for the German battleship Bismarck. On December 7 1941 Seely witnessed Macintyre sink his first U-boat, U-208, by depth charge; then, on January 15 1942, Macintyre sank a second, U-93. After repairs, Hesperus returned to the Atlantic and escorted a dozen convoys, several without loss. On Boxing Day she sank U-357.In March 1943 Seely was appointed first-lieutenant of the lease-lend destroyer Bazely, and in October he helped successfully defend convoy ONS 206, when wolf pack Schliffen was driven off with the loss of one merchant ship for the loss of six U boats; it was one of the most disastrous nights of the war for the U-boats.Then, in November, Bazely was part of the escort of Convoy SL 140 when 65 merchant ships were attacked off Cape St Vincent by 13 U-boats of wolf pack Weddigen. Bazely helped to sinkU-648 on November 23; two days later she sank U-600.During Operation Neptune in June 1944, Bazely’s escort group was deployed in the Western Approaches to keep U-boats from interfering with the landings in Normandy.In September 1944 Seely decided to specialise as a signals officer. On completing his course he sailed in the Australian destroyer Quickmatch to Sydney, where he joined the destroyer flotilla leader Kempenfelt in the British Pacific Fleet for the closing months of the war and the liberation of Hong Kong.He returned to Britain in December 1945, saying he had had a “rather a dull war – I never got sunk”. Shortly after the war he was court-martialled for losing the safe key giving access to a ship’s cryptographic material, and was deprived of two years’ seniority as a lieutenant: he thought the sentence was “very fair,” but the Admiralty reduced the punishment on review. Seely commanded the destroyer Cossack in 1958-59, and the new frigate Ajax from 1963 to 1965. He was mentioned in despatches for his part in foiling a landing by enemy soldiers north of Kuala Lumpur during the Malayan Emergency. He was Naval Adviser in Ottawa in 1965-66. On succeeding his half-brother as the 4th Lord Mottistone in 1966, he retired from the Navy in the rank of Captain..In retirement he was a director of Radio Rentals Group; the Distributive Industry Training Board; and the Cake and Biscuit Alliance.He was appointed CBE in 1984. Mottistone was Lord Lieutenant for the Isle of Wight from 1986 to 1995, and in 1992 was appointed its Governor on the revival of the post (it had not been filled after Lord Mountbatten’s assassination in 1979). He was a member of the Royal Yacht Squadron, the longest-serving member of the Royal Cruising Club, and Commodore of the House of Lords Yacht Club. As first chairman of the mental health charity SANE, he presided over its fortunes from 1986 to 2009, seeing the charity through many difficult challenges. He married, in 1944, Anthea McMullan, who died last year, and is survived by their two sons and two daughters; another daughter predeceased him.

Received Hurt Certificate 14.3.56 Deputy Standard Bearer from 2005. Died 23 September 2019. Born in Cardiff 13.11.1936 Ship Mate Peter Taylor grew up during the war years and was evacuated up the valley’s for a period of this time but experienced some of the heavy bombing that Cardiff encountered during these years. He was the youngest of 4 siblings. He was a very good all-round sportsman and represented Cardiff School Boys at rugby football and cricket. His flare for all sports was something he passed on to both of his sons who gained county representative honours in several sports including Rugby, Cricket, and cross country through his coaching and training. He joined the Royal Navy in the early 1950’s and served on the Cossack during its last commission and was the youngest remaining serving member of the Cossack Association. He met his wife Sue whilst they were both serving at HMS Raleigh in the early 1960’s and they married in 1965 in Plymouth. On the arrival of his second son Neil Pete left the navy to pursue a career in catering and private service with Sue. They spent many years working together but also shared a love of dancing which Pete had learnt to do in the dance halls of Cardiff. It should be pointed out this was also where he learnt his skills on the snooker table and even after he lost the sight in his right eye in March 1985 (due to an accident with a champagne cork) he continued to play to very high standard until quite recently. Upon leaving the Navy Pete joined the Royal British Legion and became a standard bearer in many of their branches as he moved around the country with his wife through their work as a Butler and Cook partnership serving their employers. He was county standard bearer in 2 different counties (Devon and Cumbria) which is a very rare achievement and of course a keen standard bearer for the association. He went to the Royal Albert Hall commemoration service on several occasions, and to many events such as the Queens Silver Jubilee and Golden Jubilee RBL events as a standard bearer. He was also very good at representing the association wherever it was required. In his latter years to assist with his Alzheimer’s he joined several singing groups using his very good Welsh singing voice in several concerts and events. His funeral was attended by family and friends from all over the country, including several members of the association, and was a real celebration of his life where his elder son Paul paid tribute to Pete’s amazing sense of humour and love of life. He was given a true Navy mans send off with a very extended “Up-spirits” and musical tributes by those assembled. He will be a much missed member of the Cossack family.

COSSACK ?-1953 Able Seaman Received £5 for gun efficiency Thomas. F.M.( Mike /Tomo) COSSACK 1958-1959 Acting Leading EM (3 June 2019) My wife and I have been married 61 years as of the 19th April this year, which works out that we were married in April 1958. We decided to get married as I was going to join Cossack in Singapore in June of that year (the “overseas” allowance for being Married would be useful, as indeed it was). After a very tearful goodbye I flew out to Singapore to join Cossack and didn’t see my “new wife” for eighteen months, the only communication being the flimsy air mail letters of the time. As I had already spent eighteen months on HMS Newcastle in the Far East previously I knew what to expect and it was a repeat “showing the flag”. In many places, Australia and New Zealand in particular with lots of invites and hospitality from the locals. My wife “bless her “stayed at her parents and carried on with her job (as a divorce clerk at a local solicitors). With the help of the previously mentioned overseas allowance and after I came out of the Navy in 1960 we were able to get a mortgage and bought our first house from new. The day in I think was November (Actually December) 1959 was a day I shall remember forever when we “finally” docked alongside in Devonport. My wife had travelled down from Leicester expecting the ship to be in on a certain date. It didn’t happen. On arriving at the Dockyard gate she was told that the ship wouldn’t be arriving yet! We had been involved in an unusually powerful storm in the Bay of Biscay and eventually arrived, I think it was two days late. The greeting we had on arrival was tremendous and we both learned later that we had been seen on TV. My wife to this day refers to her first sight of the ship she had not previously seen “in the flesh” so to speak as “ I can’t believe that you have been on that tiny ship all this time and in all types of weather”. What was perhaps more shocking to her was the state the ship was in with lots of damaged items on the upper deck and lots of water where you wouldn’t expect it to be! The electricians mess was to her a little surprising “thirteen of you have lived in that small space”!!! Needless to say we made up for “lost time” when I eventually was on leave and up the line.
