ARTHUR STANLEY CROWSTON, DSM (with bar)

Son of Ernest and Mahale Crowston, of Ashby, Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire. (Mahale was his step-mother).
On 23 February 1943 Turbulent sailed from Algiers for a patrol in the Tyrrhenian Sea. On 1 March she attacked and sank the Italian steam-ship Vincenz. On the 11 March she is known to have attacked the mail ship Mafalda. The following morning the anti-submarine trawler Teti II sighted the periscope and conning tower of a submarine and attacked, it is believed, without success.
