"Evacuation of St Gerards In 1940"

A review of St Gerard's R C Secondary School by Joe Desport written on Sunday 1st of January 2012

All former pupils in the 1940 era I Wonder!!!

My name is Joe Desport living in Oxfordshire and can remember the above evac. from the school due to an unexploded bomb entering the funnel of HMS Sussex lying at Princes Dock.The battle cruiser had just been re armed and her magazine full of high explosives

so she obviously posed a real risk to a large area of Glasgow

Further Info.on this episode can be found by logging on to the ship`s name Cheers J. .
