April 45 photo
Hi
researching the war career of Michael Heathcote who was a member of 3 (x) troop, 10 Cdo. In his record it states he was at CBTC April 1945. Id like to know if he is on this photograph if there is such a record? many thanks in advance
ps he is recorded as a member in CVA. He died in March 1978 of cancer.
