Hello,
I'm requesting information about 45 Commando B troops involvement in the war, i.e. where they were, etc.
I've recently found out that a family member, aged 22, had been involved in a fatal training exercise in October '45. The inquest revealed this happened with B troop, 45 Commando in the South Downs under the command of Capt. J. R. Sturgis.
Thank you.

I have a photo of my grandad in B troop 45 but it?s a bit mottled, but we were able to identify him, check out the gallery of WW2 commandos on here. I have the official 45 history if you send your email address I will forward.
