"There were few maritime jobs in their home country and even by 1907 there were no dockyards or naval establishments in Somaliland. Nevertheless, Somalis hired in Aden served on Royal Navy ships in the First World War.

Somali ex-soldiers who had served with the British forces during the Second World War were often offered work on Royal Navy ships after the war."

Very interesting...

My Awowe fought as a part of the King's African Rifles and saw action in Burma against the Japanese.

He would tell us stories of how brave the Japs were.

He used to collect his pension from the British until he died.
