Date of Picture
Charlie Palmer thinks this might have been taken about a fortnight after D-Day. He thinks F-Troop were relieved by the Paras 5 days after D-Day and were staying in Breville.

Lewes War Memorial
Joe's name appears on the north side of the war memorial in Lewes.
Charlie Palmer was with him when he died near Sword Beach and his wife Patricia was with Joe's wife when she got the news. I have made a brief film about this HERE.
