   Sad to report that John Lambert crossed the bar yesterday after a long illness.
John, well known for his published articles and technical drawings, will be remembered for his thorough research and skilful work, especially on matters concerning Coastal Forces. The co-authored and published 'Allied Coastal Forces of World War 2' Volumes 1 and 2, are now recognised as being the virtual Bibles on the 'Little Ships of WW2' and renowned worldwide. 

You will be sadly missed John - Rest In Peace.
