On the same day George Cargill from Derry, William Mawhinney from Ballymena and James McGrady from Belfast died in HMS Gaillardia when the ship hit a mine. A Coleraine Gunner’s Mediterranean meandering in WW2 is featured. Lance Bombardier Bobby McDonald after a spell in hospital was separated from his unit and was trained as a Regimental Signals Instructor.
