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.
