Having initially failed to get into the Fleet Air Arm as a pilot in 1941 he was accepted into the RN as a cadet on the Y-Scheme and trained to become a radar operator. In 1942 he joined the crew of Polyanthus. By a stroke of luck his draft to train at Daedalus, arrived just before Polyanthus set out on her last voyage. He went on to become a pilot in the FAA flying a Barracuda.
