Common name
Kia ora Zawed (and other interested editors), I thought I'd point out that the person's common name is William Sanders. Do you know how to determine the common name from a DNZB entry? I'm working my way through this list and have yet to find an entry where they've got the common name wrong.

That all said, he's obviously got a gravestone in Purewa Cemetery (Block F Row 44 Plot 221). Here's a photo of it. Worth adding to the article?  Schwede 66  04:55, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

He was killed in action when Prize was sunk by a U-boat on her fourth patrol. supposedly the word her between on and fourth is his! 2404:8000:1027:D5FD:68F2:64C5:6A6C:CBE2 (talk) 08:43, 11 October 2023 (UTC)


 * British usage is to consider ships as female. 'her' refers to Prize, not Sanders.    John M Brear (talk) 14:22, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
