I had the great honour of meeting William on the 23rd June 2006 as my capacity as the Mayor of High Wycombe. I invited him to the Mayors Parlour after hearing about his exploits from a fellow war veteran & decided that I must meet him! William will be 106 on the 23rd September 2006!!

I could not believe just how fit and also mentally active he was, yet alone believe that he would be a day over 60!

He very kindly gave me a list of his medals and details of the ships that he sailed with from 1918 to 1945.
