<b>Extract from No.2 Commando War Diary</b><br />
&quot;Vis 22 March 1944<br />
Enemy attacked Komiza just before nightfall with 12 plus Junkers 88. All windows blown, walls etc of the billets blown in. Lieutenant Jupp shrapnel in shoulder. 10 minor injuries. A short sharp raid evidently directed at the Naval shiping which is normally in the harbour. Very nicely timed by the Luftwaffe. Came in over the headland dropping sticks of bombs exactly over the berths where the M.T.B.'s etc are usually berthed. Came in with the sun behind them - 10 minutes after the raid it was dark. 2 Brigade men killed one lost an arm&quot;.<br />
Trooper Francis Hubert Jay, 2 Special Service (Commando) Brigade also died.]]></description>
