Hello,
5933275 Victor Thomas Browne is listed on the No 1 Commando nominal roll. If easily available I would be very interested to know the source(s) for the inclusion on the roll.
Regards
Adam

Hi Adam,
I can tell you that our sources of information, in Victor's case, were The Commando Association Newsletters.
CA Newsletter No.9 Sept 1949 announced that members experiencing troubles in the garden should note that Pte. V T Browne, now Head Gardener at West Wratting Park Nurseries, Cambs, offers free advise on all gardening problems.
CA Newsletter No.86 March 1988 announced the recent death of Pte Victor T Browne, No.1 Cdo, of Stamford, Lincs.
May I ask what your interest in Victor Browne is? Are you a relative - if so, do you have any photos of him that you'd be prepared to share with us?
Regards,
Nick

Hello,
I am not a relative, so unfortunately do not have any photos or information on Victor. I am helping a friend research a war medal that they have come into possession of (they are a collector) and so far have had no luck apart from finding similar details on your roll.
Regards
