Comment from Jeremy Monk
Anecdotal evidence points to John also being at Dieppe. According to his daughter, he and Platt remained in contact after the war. According to the family "John rescued him from Dieppe beach and put him in a boat". Furthermore, after the war, John visited Dieppe and commented that he had been there during the war.

I think this photo was taken possibly in Lymestone in Devon, rather than Eastney in Portsmouth.
