ARTHUR JOHN MANN
Ordinary Seaman, P/JX 220863, Royal Navy.
Arthur was born on 24 April 1921 in Manor Park, Essex to James and Louisa Emily Mann, of Ilford, Essex. He is known to have had two brothers, Sidney and Benjamin. He was 20 years old at the time of his loss.

I knew Arthur's wife, Mabel, who died, still a widow, as a very elderly lady. She was a good friend of my Mum.
