Hi, pictured on the top left in the first picture is my grandfather Jean Steinmetzer with two friends.
I don't have any info on his involvement in the military but my father thinks he was in the British military during WW2 and I recall him saying he was there at Normandy in 1944...but he never talked about it.
Someone from another forum pointed that he and his mates could be from a royal marine commando or another commando from their uniforms. Can anyone help? I know I can request his official records but I just started my research and I currently enjoy this personal mission! :-)
I also found this panoramic picture (numbered) on another forum and could find similarities in facial features between #1 and the man right next to my grandpa in the first picture. Am I crazy?
