Some excellent photos have been given to us by the friends and family of Corporal Gerald Fitzgerald of 2 troop. They include 3 excellent troop photos including one with Captain the Duke of Wellington in. We had a poor quality copy of this with only a few names. I am pleased to say all the names are on this photo. I am still in the process of researching the individuals named and will update the photos as and when.

I have created a personal album for Gerald within our 2 troop album of 2 Cdo:

This photo contains all the names and some information I have added:

This is a great photo with them all happy and laughing :

Finally another version of the above photo where they are trying to keep straight faces:

Additional photos of those killed in action can be seen in this link to the No.2 Cdo In Remembrance album:

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.
