[QUOTE="Pete, post: 42802, member: 636"] The photo was already in our gallery but I have seen it in the book Castle Commando by Donald Gilchrist. I did not see any mention of him in that book other than being named in the photo. John is actually the man in charge of the Special Forces Roll of Honour website which we are on now. He and I share each others photos on occasions. You can pm him on here if you need to. If he was attached to the RAF for a period he has technically served with all 3 the Armed Services prior to his being killed in action. That in itself is unique. Cameronians (Scottish Rifles), RAF, and 43 RM Commandos. I have cropped a slightly better version and replaced my original on the CVA site. Thats about the best I can do. Regards [/QUOTE]
