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

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.
