Our late chairman Stan (scotty) Scott asked me to write an article on Henry Harden VC in 2005.

He provided some interesting documents in dutch which I had translated.

The article which I have just rediscovered is now on site here:

http://www.commandoveterans.org/node/1722

The article was later published in the Victoria Cross Society Journal

Interesting contemporary Daily Sketch article on 'Doc' Harden over on the WW2Talk forum here ...

A moving quotation from his widow too.

Link to the complete topic, but which is not primarily about 'Doc' Harden:

Remembering Tom McCormack, died of wounds, Bill Hughes and Syd Murdoch both captured, all at St Nazaire and all Liverpool Scottish/QOCH & 5(Scottish) Troop, No 2 Commando. Wonderful company & welcome guests billeted with my grandfather in Ayr in 1941-2.
