I would like to correct one section regarding the grave of Col Grant Taylor. It has been mentioned in the book that his grave at the Quetta Christian Cemetry had been damaged or destroyed by a mob in 2001 who were protesting against US invasion of Afghanistan. Just to check I visited the Quetta Christian Cemetry on December 20, 2014, and with some help from a few friends and also from a old picture of the grave we managed to locate Col Grant Taylors grave which was quite intanct, undamaged and well preserved. I took a few pictures and I will be happy to share them if someone is interested. I would be grateful if this correction could be made at least in the next edition of the book Forum Index » Profile for Habib » Messages posted by Habib Go to:  Select a forum Using the Website, Forums and Gallery Tips on Research General Topics Looking for Information Individuals Looking for Information General Association Membership Association Newsletter Association Events General Events Wartime Army Commando Units Wartime Army Commando Individuals Wartime RM Commando Units Wartime RM Commando Individuals Wartime RN Commandos Wartime Commando Nominal Rolls Wartime Commando Operations and Raids Wartime Commandos War Diaries Wartime Commando Training Establishments Wartime Commando Weapons and Equipment Wartime Commando Support Ships and Landing Craft RM Commando Units 1946 to present day Post War Army Commando Units Post-war Commando Operations We Will Remember Them Commando Memorials and Places of Remembrance Commando Event Anniversaries (WW2) Commando Library Commando Insignia Collectors and Memorabilia Association Auction UK Armed Forces Updates Video Links Just for Laughs   ©Commando Veterans Archive 2006 - 2016.
