Scroll down to Special Service Brigade and click War Diaries.
What is interesting that these war diaries have not been indexed in Google.
I have been struggling with war diaries over the last few months, in regards trying to get researchers employed by the national archives to find relevant extracts for me. Having found this site with in 2 minutes I`d found exactly which Troops of commando the men I was researching had served with myself.
Good luck with your research.
