Hi there,

I am new to this website. I'm looking for information on my grandfather - Albert E Johannesen - born 7th january 191 and passed away on 3rd January 2004. I do not know much myself but from information i have pieced together i believe he was a sergeant in the 1st commando brigade. If you have any information at all, it would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Gareth

That photo is also in our gallery here: http://gallery.commandoveterans.org/cdoGallery/v/units/HQ+and+Sigs/1+SS+Bde/Commandos+restore+Drums.PNG.html

If you have any photos from his time in the Commandos feel free to add them.
