Title: AMD53 Ships Logs
Post by: David H on 27 February 2019 03:44:54 pm
Hi,
   Does anyone know what happens to ships logs that are not kept at the national archives, especially logs from mid sixties to early seventies. The reason I ask is I want to know the movements of 2 frigates I served on during this time. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
                Cheers David H

They are retained by the M o D until released - but ships logs for the 60s and 70s are in the National Archives.  Catalogue shows logs up to 2003 now available
