I just thought that I would upload this article that appeared in a local free paper a few weeks ago concerning Operation Frankton. Hopefully if the memorial becomes a reality I will get some photos and upload them in to the appropriate section of the gallery.

Thanks for posting this and reminding us that it was at this time some 70 years ago that this Operation by men of the Royal Marine Boom Patrol Detachment or RMBPD took place.
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.
