I have been sent this photo by a friend who had grandfathers in both No.5 Cdo and in the RM Cdos (although the grandson wasn't sure which RM Cdo his grandfather was in).
Today he visited Shanklin Chine - where both No.5 and The RM Cdo had their HQ in Upper Chine School, at different periods.
This photo was on the wall in the Shanklin Chine museum and shows 9 Platoon, 'X' Company, RM Commando, July 1942.

It is the same photo as this one in the 40 RM Cdo Album.
