Happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year to everyone. Sorry to hear about your freezing weather Stephen, it's actually quite mild here today on the East coast of God's country, and the forecast is to get warmer

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all members, friends and passers by on the CVA website, this seems like an appropriate time to share the attached, which I believe is an Old Comrades Association Christmas card
Keep up the excellent work on this website it is an absolutely fantastic place for remembrance and learning
All the best

Will be passing the memorial in the bus today on the way to Inverness. Will be remembering, as I pass, our Commando family and all of those who are no longer with us.
God's blessing on you and your family in 2012.
Bill Harvey and all the family.

Was up at the Spean Bridge Commando Memorial in the sleet today remembering them all.
Paul the Commando Card that you have is of the Commando memorial in Flushing.
We remember all the Army and RM Commandos who were killed in action or wounded in action and all the families.
Best wishes.
Bill
