Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill

Most informative site. My father.
Ronald Ward, (Australian) was a survivor of the the S.S. Josiah Snelling, torpedoed whilst bound for Port Vila in the New Hebrides(now Vanuatu) on 15 April 1943. The ship was loaded with foodstuffs, 12 head of cattle and 4 horses. If you have further any information regarding this event I would be most appreciative. Sincerely, Fay Miller (daughter of Mr. R. Ward.)
