The left hand medal in the photo bears the Bar for the North West Frontier so dates from a Service in India up near the border with Afghanistan!

very interesting - I think Hylton should be Hilton if this was the section that landed at Yellow Beach One. My father Roger Hilton was captured there as were many others and i would love to read any accounts of that event. Thank you

Hi Ron,
This is Quentine, my married name is Green. I have left my e-mail address with Pete Rogers for you to contact me. I have a few years to fill you in on so please contact me. I showed the landing craft picture to Mum and the physical details are certainly correct and the rank is correct. I also have a few war time pictures to add for your interest.
I look forward to speaking to you.
Regards
Quentine
