Hi, Can my dad?s information be updated with a couple of photos? He was Thomas Ellis Jones, 3 Commando, one of the second police intakes from Liverpool city police. Trained at Achnacarry July - September 1942, fought at Malati Bridge in Sicily and was a POW in Wundschuh near Graz in Austria.

Hi Kath,
Do you know his service number or the regiment he was drafted into?
There are four T.E. Jones listed as PoWs - I just would like to find the right one...

Hi Kath
Glad to see you managed to post the photos. Do you have the one here at a higher resolution at all? As I said in response to your email the details we have in the archive are here: http://www.commandoveterans.org/Thomas_Ellis_Jones_3Commando
If you have his date and place of birth I can also add that should you wish.
