Hi Jacky,
There's lots of old sailors on Yo and we've got our own section - why not post this there?

Brians' Daley and Aspinall can tell you a bit about Cunard Yanks.
Cheers,

My pa in law was a Cunard Yank. Dom Volante was the gym instructor on his ship. This reminds me I have a pic of him, my pa in law that is as a 17 year old on The Franconia and he wants us to try and identify the bloke on it who worked in the bakers room. I'll post it up later.
