Hi all.
I have some photos to share.
1) The young recruit, 1941.
2) Royal Marines Gunnery Training - Sea Service Battery at Eastney
3) On return to England after spending VE day in Hamburg
Strictly speaking the first two have nothing to do with B Troop 45 Cdo as my father joined the Cdo late in WW2 (after joining the RM in 1941), but I can make up for that with additional photos, as he was in the Service until the mid 1970's.
(EDIT: Sorry, the pics came out in reverse order!)
Roger Taylor, centre. Pennsylvania, 1944 while HMS Nelson was under repair at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. On return to England, Roger began his Commando Training.
