Ronald Ernest Easton was born in 1915 and served in submarines between 1941 and 1944. In April 1942 he went to New London, U.S.A. as crew of the U.S.S. S-29 a submarine that had been built in 1919 which was then sailed back via Bermuda to Gibraltar with the new name of H.M.S. P.556. Ronald Easton served on the P.556 until November 1942 and then joined the ‘S’ Class submarine Shakespeare. On her he served in the Mediterranean from January 1943 to April 1944. During this time the Shakespeare sank the Italian sailing vessels Sant' Anna M. and Adelina, the Greek sailing vessel Aghios Konstantinos and two unidentified sailing vessels. She also sank the Italian submarine Velella, which was lost with all hands, and unsuccessfully attempted to torpedo what was identified as an Italian light cruiser. Easton was awarded the L.S. & G.C. Medal whilst serving on the light cruiser Newfoundland. The cruiser was commissioned in 1942 and sold to the Peruvian Navy in 1959. On 31 October 1956, during the Suez Crisis, the cruiser in company with the destroyer Diana sank the Egyptian frigate Domiat.
