Hi guys, just after some clarification on the guys in the picture. sorry about the photo quality.
My grandfather L W Nock is far right in the suit but who are the others?
Have an invite (its on here somewhere in the gallery) with Roy farran and Bill Stirlings autographs on so thought it was them. Any help appreciated. Will try and get some answers myself as well.
Regards
Chris
 
I am fairly sure that the man on the left is Harry Vickers-he was my father friend.

I am not 100% certain but I suspect that the veteran next to Harry may be Tim Robinson and the one next to your grandfather Bob Young who was a policeman in civilian life. Sadly, both Tim and Bob have passed on - I am in touch with Tim's eldest son who lives in Australia - I will ask him to double check. I do know that Harry Vickers was close to both Tim and Bob. Your grandfather's picture rings a bell do youn know what operations he was on?

Regards,

William
