[QUOTE="zaziork, post: 42414, member: 1182"] Hi Sam, Your Fred may be one of the guys present in a group photo with my uncle, upon the back of which he had written the names of the others. I had read one as "Jed" but it may well have been Fred. I intend to send copies of a few photos to John Robertson to post on this site shortly, but if you like I'll forward a copy of the photo (it was taken in North Africa). I'm also in the process of obtaining my uncle's service records from the MOD, after which time I intend to contact the SAS Reg. Assoc. As far as the National Archives are concerned, one of the references for the War Diaries of SAS (and 8 commando, which my uncle was in prior to L Det) is WO 218. But you would either need to hire a researcher at TNA or pay a visit to Kew yourself in order to read/obtain copies of relevant files. They are not digitised. I hope to get to Kew myself at some point, so when I do I'll let you know.. [/QUOTE]
