Hello Alan,
Welcome to the CVA Website & Forum.
Thank you for informing us about the recent passing of your father - you can be assured that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time.

I have uploaded the fantastic portrait of your father into the No.11 Commando Album in our Gallery where he is once again among the guys he stood shoulder to shoulder with during those dark days of war.

We already had one photo with him on (see link below) in the Gallery

My colleague, Pete, will add your father's name to our Obituary Column and his name will be read out at the Commando Remembrance Service, at the Commando Monument, Spean Bridge, in November.

Nick
