WAR: HMS Hermes
A SAILOR has launched a bid to trace a former colleague from Barrow who served onboard HMS Hermes with him during the Falklands.
Gary Allen contacted The Mail in his search for his best friend from years ago Paul Fitzsimmons.
"Unfortunately, we lost touch around 1986 and I have not been able to trace him until now," Mr Allen said.
"It would be great to catch up after all these years as we shared quite a bond through our time in the Royal Navy." If you can help email amy.fenton@newsquest.co.uk
