[QUOTE="sammyb, post: 43095, member: 1242"] Doug - i think a lot of men took that path. I don't think it was unusual. His name was Fred Senior. I have been lucky in being given a photo album of his that has photos from his time in 8 commando at Burnham on Crouch, Isle of Arran, HMS Glenroy and in Egypt/Middle east. Your father will have also no doubt been in the same places alongside Fred. Some of the photos are on this site in the gallery. I also know he was in Syria (Chekka?) at one point - must have been when he was in ME commando. Fred was killed in Jan 1943 when his patrol of B squadron 1SAS was ambushed in the Libyan desert near the Tunisian border. Sam [/QUOTE]
