<i> Rear row, 5th from right,</i> Capt David Balls - KIA 19/3/44, at Anzio. <br />
<i> Rear row, 2nd from right,</i> Harold Barton, MM.<br />
See individual photo of David in the main No.9 Commando album. Neil tells me that at Anzio 3 troop were used as an assault troop, the heavy weapons being provided by infantry units<br />

**update 16/3/10 by Pete R.   This photo was a better quality image of one we already had so I have replaced it here. There were no details of who provided the original photo. The photo and all the information on here was provided by Neil Livinsgtone]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[I believe the commando in the front row 2nd from the right is my grandfather Robert Griffin, who was from Middlesbrough. I would be really pleased if this could be confirmed.<br />
Many thanks<br />
