I am assuminging that you are Derek's son - I met him through my father (At Huntly??) and attended his funeral in Torbay.
I don't have a copy of 'Torbay tales' but do remember growing up reading the war patrol logs that Freddie had, although they were very faded.
He had various items from Torbay which he passed on to the CO of the new Torbay shortly after her commission. He was invited on board on several occassions, even on a trip to Torbay itself.
