Subject: Searching for veterans

Dear Sirs,

I am researching my Great Grandfather who was in the Royal Navy during the 
Second World War. He was involved with escorting Atlantic convoys including 
convoy SC7 in October 1940.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convoy_SC_7#cite_note-Lund.2C_Ludlum_p-2

I have been reading the account of this convoy in the book by Lund and 
Ludlum, 'Night of the U Boats', and also saw a documentary on National 
Geographic Channel (made in 2010) which had interviews with some of the 
veterans.

I am really keen to try to see if any of these men are alive and might be 
willing to discuss it with me, since I never met my Great Grandfather. I 
know that much time has passed since then and men would be very elderly, but 
I am trying nevertheless to record information before it is too late.

If you know how it might be possible to trace veterans, then I'd be very 
grateful to hear from you.

Thank you,
Charles Bacon
