Hi Kevin

Looks really great, you will have to post another photo when you have had it stretched and framed, by the way have not forgotten about the Commando DVD, will let you know as soon as I post it out to you.

Thanks again for all your efforts concerning the meeting with Idris, cheers Andy.

Hi Kevin

The finished piece looks really superb, you have done a great job, I have tried to download the image, but for some reason I don't seem to be able to open attachments to any Forum messages at the moment.
I have just contacted a printers and am going to have a copy of the No1 Commando group panorama that Idris has and that John Mewett sent me a high res copy of. If I can find a frame big enough (the photo size is 36" x 6") I will mount and frame this myself, I have actually got a special device for cutting the mountboard card.

Excellent Job, cheers Andy

Many thanks for the positive comments, Andy you'll have to upload your finished project of the Commando panorama.
I've also recently obtained some old photos of my father in uniform from 1926 onwards taken in India and Sudan, he also has a " Good Buddy" but I suppose I'll never find out who he was. Although not strictly commando I might upload some time, at the age of early to mid twenties he looks quite the dude in his RWF uniform.

All the best
Kevin
