Middle row second from right is my Dad . CPL R. N. LONG Royal Engineers. I was given by my Mum a colection of photos dad took in WW2. Many of conflict in the dessert. Some of individual photos of people I can regonise in the photos on your site.He never spoke of this part of the war. We knew he was left behind at dunkirk to blow up strategic positions and when he eventually got back to England via St Malo he volunteered for what he called a shoot to kill course before ending up at the battle of the Latani river. He was in the war for the whole conflict away from home for 6 years. On return to Britain he was given the job of repatrating german POW's back to Germany.
