Hi Nick

There is a previous post about him here. Ronald 'Ken' Young of No.9 Commando who has since died mentioned him, and described him as

" a bloody fine troop sergeant major":

As I said at the time " Thats a great tribute from one soldier about another "

He also took part in what became known as Callf's charge at the Wadi at Anzio. Major Callf MC wrote of thisand it can be read on this link:

It would be great if there were any pictures of him from his army days so we could place a tribute in our gallery

Hello Nick. As Pete has mentioned Ken Young spoke about Frank Walsh. I was fortunate to of known Ken for the past eleven years and just before he passed away he told me one thing he wondered about was what become of Frank. I posted a message on the forum over a year ago for Ken but had no reply. It would be great if you could tell us about frank. Ken spoke highly of him. Regards Marc.

hi Mark,

I only posted the message on behalf of Mark Beveridge who has registered as a new member but has yet to make a post - maybe you'd like to contact him yourself.
by following this link you'll be able to contact him by email or PM.
