It is with great sadness that we read today of the death of Roy Maxwell aged 101, a veteran of No.4 Commando. The CWGC posted this announcement about his passing and a video of him visiting the graves of some of his fellow commandos in Normandy. Our sincere condolences to all his family and friends.

We are very sad to learn that World War veteran Roy Maxwell has passed away aged 101. Heartfelt condolences from everyone at the CWGC to his family and friends. In 2019 Roy made an emotional visit to the grave of his friend Lieutenant Colley in France. View the video https://youtu.be/fW6TV5hGc18


Rest in peace Roy.

Do not speak.....unless it improves on Silence.

A good teacher opens the door.....you must enter yourself.
