Hi,

i see that my grandfathers details appear on a nominal roll for 9 commando.

Can anyone provide any details so i can investigate further.

The family advised he did go on several raids.

I only know for certain of Dieppe, Lofoten, Walcheren, Rhine and Sierra Leone in prep for Canary islands, where he caught malaria.
Was at Achnacarry assisting with training prior to D-Day and went back to 4 commando in June /July 44

Hi

Having read through the list i was surprised to find the name Swinson. Grandad never talked much about the war. The entry you have is for a T Swinson but the service number is my Grandfathers 4038517 KSLI Swinson Stanley.

Will be requesting as per instruction.

Regards

Mike Swinson
