It is with much sadness that Penny Oates-Midson informs us of the recent death on the 12th May 2014 of her father Eric Oates who served in No 6 Commando. Eric was a member of the CVA. Our thoughts are with Penny and all the family at this time.

Rest in peace Eric

Pete Rogers, son of LSgt Joe Rogers MM & nephew of TSM Ken McAllister. Both No2 Commando.
God and the Soldier, all men adore, In time of danger and not before.
When the danger is passed and all things righted, God is forgotten, and the Soldier slighted.

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

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

A wonderful man gone to rejoin his comrades. R. I. P. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. May they have many happy memories of one of the heroes. God bless. Bill
