Their father Isaac served in WW1 in the Labour Corps and worked as a tailor. Albert attended the Grocer&#8217;s Grammar school and worked in his uncle&#8217;s radio and electrical shop as a Saturday boy where he became interested in radios, and he became proficient at morse code. After leaving school he was later articled to an accountant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info from &#8216;<em>Jews in the Merchant Navy in the Second World War by Martin Sugarman<\/em>&#8216;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At 09.00 hours on 29 July 1943 the Cornish City was en route from Louren\u00e7o Marques in Mozambique bound for Aden and Suez carrying 9,600 tons of coal.
