Below I have begun a list of the crew of HMS Edinburgh between 1939-1942. The list is incomplete, as I am still adding names. I have a list of officers but no other crew members. If anyone knows of crew members not listed or if I have added incorrect information, then please fill in this form with their information.

Those crew members who have memorial sites are linked. Click the crew members name to view their story

For information about the crews time on Edinburgh and in Murmansk please read
