I have posted in the gallery a photo of this unit taken in Gibraltar in 1943. Please note the Commando, Jimmy Browning, with an appropriately beret shaped Chef's headgear. I am not sure if it ever became official issue !

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.
