In 2001, Parkes' disappearance gained renewed interest when it was noted that convicted murder Allan Grimson also worked on HMS Illustrious at the same time.
Parkes was a Seaman radio operator in the Royal Navy and was serving aboard HMS Illustrious.[1] In December 1986, the ship berthed in Gibraltar allowing the crew to get some shore leave in. This was the last leg of HMS Illustrious' world tour (known as Global 86)[2] before she sailed for her home port of Portsmouth.[3] Parkes had gone ashore with his shipmates on the 12 December and was last seen at the Horseshoe Bar after telling friends that he was going to get something to eat. Someone fitting his description was seen at the Hole in the Wall pub, part of the Fleet Pavilion (which was hosting a Naval function). "
