With regard to the article about the photographs I have spoken today to the son of Arthur Thompson in the hope that his father may have photos of himself and his comrades from 47RM Commando that he may be willing to share with us.

Updated below with photo:

Pete Rogers, son of LSgt Joe Rogers MM & nephew of TSM Ken McAllister. Both No2 Commando.
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.
