My thanks to James Dorrian, the author of books such as Storming St Nazaire, for once again helping me out with information and details on individuals who took part in the raid. He has kindly forwarded the photo of 6 troop No.2 Commando taken before the raid which was given to him by Captain Michael Burn MC. My thanks to Micky Burn for providing such a good photo. Several from the photo were killed during the raid. I have cropped the individuals photos and added them to our No.2 Commando In Remembrance album. Jim has added a lot of information to the St Nazaire photos that we have in the WW2 album for Operation Chariot provided by himself and contacts like Bernard Petit - Jean.
The 6 troop photo is here :

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.
