#5 we believe is my grandfather Francis ‘Irvine’ Steadman. He has been identified by his Son (my father) as well as matching him with other photos we have from his Army days. We’ll be staying in Normandy for the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings to pay our respect and would appreciate any stories or details of where 3 troop served during those times. Like many he chose not to talk much of his time in the Army so we have very limited information. Thanks

Number 1 - Ronald Stanley Freeman
I believe number 1 to be my Grandfather Ronald Stanley Freeman - 6352714. He shared many of his war stories with me, as well as leaving me his medals, which I am now tallying up against the historical data of the No 3 Commando's activities.
He was wounded on the 21st July 1943 in Sicily during the capture of the Ponte dei Malati Bridge (No 3 Commando Bridge).
He was fortunate enough to recover from his injuries and passed away in 1999.

Sorry to be a bother, but this surname is misspelled, it should be "Withrington".
