2 Cdo on HMT Lord Nuffield in the Med. Photo courtesy of Lindsay whose father Victor 'Dusty' Miller (3 trp)is back row extreme left.

Update 24/6/11 by Pete R. Front row extreme right is Pte George Sansom of 3 trp ( identified by his granddaughter Linda)

Writing on the reverse of the photo is posted alongside it in the album. The names would appear to be similar to Wilfred, Jeffrey Benny Tarrant. We have a photo of Johnny Tarrant who was killed in action in our No.2 Cdo In Remembrance album. If anyone can positively identify those in the photo please post a comment with the details.
