My wife has recently discovered among her late mothers documents letters written in about 1945 from a J.A.S. Currie D/JX 246422 (L/TEL??) who was active on HMS Unicorn at this time. It seems that the ship at some point had docked in Durban, South Africa and during this time Jimmy (as signed in his letters) took a trip up to Pietermaritzburg where he met my wife's mother Magdelina (Max) Halgreen. In his letters he writes very affectionately about her and wrote many poems in his letters. He was obviously very eloquent and his poems most enlightening. It is possible that he may still be living or that his relatives may be interested in some of his poems. This is a shot in the dark so to speak and look forward to hearing from you.
