Pete Rogers, son of LSgt Joe Rogers MM & nephew of TSM Ken McAllister. Both No2 Commando.
God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.

This weekend marks the 73rd anniversary of the raid. The St Nazaire Society also recently launched their revamped website whichI have amended on the message above and repeated below.

Remembering all who lost their lives (click on this link) The Fallen, and also all those who sustained life changing injuries during the raid.

We shall remember them.
Remembering Tom McCormack, died of wounds, Bill Hughes and Syd Murdoch both captured, all at St Nazaire and all Liverpool Scottish/QOCH & 5(Scottish) Troop, No 2 Commando. Wonderful company & welcome guests billeted with my grandfather in Ayr in 1941-2.
