H.M.S. Hood

H.M.S. HOOD 1924

My dear Richard,

Please find attached a Photo of H.M.S. Hood dated 20th May 1924, this is signed by members of the band that were aboard at the time, and maybe of interest to past and present members, the names that are discernable are.
BCpl, H.W. McConnell, Musns A Wicker, F Budden, A Dawner, F Greenwood, Harry Parker, MC Orrin, and
A Turner. This was found in the music library of the Ponsonby Boys band in Auckland, the band that use to be conducted by the late B/Sgt Jack Gray x 162, I have forwarded the original to the HMS Hood association in the UK.
