Some of the Mary Rose crewMost of the men in this photograph, including Charles Grant, died when the Mary Rose sank in October 1917. Various copies of this photo survive with crew descendants, and one labels Charles the grinning, hatless man standing in the centre, with his hands resting on another man's shoulders.
