Default What was 2NZEF's 27(Mg) Btn. doing 2/45 to2/46

A lady is hoping to find out a bit about where her dad(Francis Leonard (Tommy) Feetham R.N. 444991) went and what his battalion 27 ( machine gun) did in Italy. She has photos of the graves of some of his friends kia. they were;
R.N. 244891 pte g. Hultenberg kia 17/4/45
R.N.???????????N.J. Fuller.....? kia 15/4/45
R.N.4818 Young kia 25/4/45
R.N.63183 pte Anderson kia 2/4/45
Her dad suvived and came home from Italy on the "Sterling Castle" He was awarded the Italy star medal, and qualified to wear theNZ war medal 39-45, and the N.Z. war service medal.
Can anybody give us a bit of a run down on where these lads went/ fought etc.
Thanks in advance,
Lynn.
