Palestine Police Badge 1920's-1940's
Today we found a newspaper clipping containing the death notices for
Maria Teeney who died 16th October 1945 at 33 Oregon Street, Belfast.
One of the death notices was from her brother Robert Morrow,
276 Alliance Avenue, Belfast. On his notice it is mentioned that
his occupation is “Palestine Police”.
I have contacted the Palestine Police Old Comrades Association
in the hope of getting some information on Robert and his role with the
Palestine Police. I will also be searching the National Archives online.
NEWS JUST IN!!!
Robert Morrow served with the Palestine Police
stationed at Latrun Detention Camp as British Constable 3784
from 09/07/1944 to 14/01/1947
on which date he was medically discharged from the Force.
His last known address was Sandown, Isle of Wight.
No other information is available at this time.

Unknown sailor, 12th Sept 1942. HMS Impregnable Training Base
I have found half a photograph of a young Royal Navy sailor, he is unknown and I would like to try and identify him. The photo was found in a personal collection belonging to either Mary Clarke or Albert Teeney’s family.
He is wearing a cap with what seems to have H.M.S. Impregnable on it. I have looked into other bases and ships but this seems to be the only candidate. This photo has been cut down the middle so the left portion is missing.
On the reverse of the photo in pencil is written:
12 Sept. 1942
Left
Again this may or may not be the fill inscription due to the photo being trimmed.
As far as I can tell H.M.S. Impregnable was a training base for ‘hostile only’ communications ratings at Plymouth / Devonport betweeen 1935-1947. After decommissioning H.M.S. Impregnable was reopened soon after, remaining in commission until 1948.
Any information you may have would be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE
Mum may have just had a memory recall… the chap in the photo could possibly be a Madden from Oregon St. Belfast. A friend of the Teeney family.
