Hi Ron

Welcome to the CVA, my father was also in No1 Commando, some time a go I uploaded a copy of a programme that was published to commemorate the 52nd aniversary No1's return to their last home base (Winchester) before being shipped overeas to Burma. I have just looked at the section of the programme that lists all of the former members of No1 that were known to have diad since 1946, as you will see from the attached link there appears the name of a Cpl Eddy Dulson that died in 1994, would this be your uncle?
If this is your uncle and you would like a good quality copy of this programme then let me know and I will gladly print one off for you.

If you have any photos or documents of your uncle from his time with No1 and would like to upload them on to our gallery, then either myself or others on this site would be only too glad to do this on your behalf. Have you checked out the CVA gallery for No1 yourself yet, you never know there may be a photo of your uncle on there already, especially the excellent panorama of No1 taken in Winchester just before they were posted overseas, see attached links to the No1 photo album.

You can also apply for a copy of your uncle's service records, quite a few of us on this site have already done this and received copies of some very interesting original documents, see attached link for details on how to carry out an application yourself.

Cheers and good luck, Andy
