Jack Strong (Primary Source)

In 2011, The Memory Project interviewed Jack Jeffries Strong, a veteran of the Second World War. The following recording (and transcript) is an excerpt from this interview. Born on 15 March 1928 in Lowestoft, England, Strong was evacuated to the midlands during the war. He began working at a factory in Norwich at age 14, then joined the British Merchant Navy when he was 16. In this testimony, he recalls being bombed in Norwich, as well as the threat of submarine attacks in the merchant navy. Strong eventually became a captain in the merchant navy; he immigrated to Newfoundland in 1964 to start a position at the College of Fisheries (now Marine Institute) in St. John’s, where he worked for 20 years. He died on 18 March 2016 in St. John’s. (See also Merchant Navy of Canada and U-Boat Operations in Canadian Waters.)
