Edwin (Bob) Bond?
I think that the second on the left, back row is my Grandad - Edwin Bond (he was always known as Bob). I've been trying to find out more information about his time in the Marines but have been drawing a blank. I know he was in Burma and that's about it!

My Uncle Fusilier Robert Salonicka Woodman row 2 (4) Killed at St Nazaire. My Dad and Uncle spoke of him so many times that I feel I knew him although never met him. So proud of him, and indeed all of these men.
