My thanks to Chris Rooney, son of Major Basil Oswald 'Micky' Rooney of No12 Commando and SAS, who has provided photos from his father's collection. There is a detailed service history of his father in the personal album I have created for him, and an excellent photo of 4 troop No.12 Cdo. with names and details thereon. Both now in the 12 Commando gallery on this link. I still have some updates to make :
