T. M. Jones (–2000)
Autor von The silent service : action stories of the Anzac Navy
Über den Autor
(eng) Given the dates below, Jones was likely born circa 1895 or earlier, and likely died before 2000. Until someone determines otherwise, I have entered a date of death as 1 Jan 2000. From "Australian Submarines at Peace : J Boats" by Graham Seal - Leading Torpedo-man Tom, or ‘Taff', Jones had been among the landing boat crews at Gallipoli aboard HMS London. (ie in April 1915 - my note) Inspired by the well-reported exploits of VC-winnner Lieutenant Norman Douglas Holbrook in British submarine B11 in the Dardanelles, he joined the submarine service. Jones subsequently served aboard J2 and in 1935 published a rare account of the experience in his Watchdogs of the Deep".
Jones in 1941, whilst serving on HMAS Australia, also wrote "Sons of the sea : from naval cadet to captain", and in 1944, with Ion L Idriess wrote "The Silent Service".
