Hi Pete

Yes I was aware that this pic is already in your extencive library. I only put it up to show the highlighted Mr Branigan. Very interesting that Jimmy Dunning is in the same picture. There is every chance that he knew him then. Is there anyway that I could contact Mr Dunning with regards to what he may know about Mr Branigan? Or if he wants his details kept sectret then could somebody pass my details on to him.

Please PM me if you need my details.

Many thanks

Paul

P.S. I'll order Mr Dunnings new book off Amazon now, thanks.

Hi Pete and Andy,

Many thanks for your welcome, I have been an observer of this site for some while due to my interest in F-S knives and there association to the Commandos. The reason I ask is that I have reciently bought Mr Branigans 1st Pattern FS. The person I bought it through is currently on holiday until mid May and he has promised on his return to find out more about Mr Branigan from his source. The "source" has reciently purchased Mr Branigans medals along with the 1st Pattern. Not being an FS collector he decided to sell on the FS and that's how I come to now own it. I will post some pics of it when I get my camera fixed. I also have this pic of Mr Branigan that was taken the day before Abercrombie on the ramparts of Dover Castle. He is the highlighted man. I was sent these pics along with the knife. I also found my info as to when the pics were taken in "The Fighting Fourth" and then found the dates to be Abercrombie.

Again any help or info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
