Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I will re-post this on the RM Commandos forum. The information came from a wartime photo of a group holding a sign with that unit and from the family of the person concerned.

Best wishes,

Chris

I am trying to establish where a WW2 RM Commando Unit which I have only seen referred to as 183 Squadron fitted into the operational hierarchy. I have checked the histories by James Ladd and Charles Messenger and done searches on the National Archives and Imperial War Museum online catalogues but not found any reference to it - only histories of the higher level formations. Could anyone explain to me how I might track down this Unit, please.
