My recent interest has been inspired by a few years of research about the Originals and it is not too hard to find out what exactly happened to all of the Originals, during the war and after, however it is really hard finding a great deal about Edward Mcdonald, after the famous photos taken with Lt Col Stirling in early January 1943.
Of course the photos I am talking about are featured on what seem like most of the books written about the Special Air Service, during the war, but I have drawn a blank about Lt Mcdonald after the Jan 1943 photos were taken.
All I know is that Mcdonald transferred to 2 SAS but other than that nothing.
Anyway I am confirming that I believe this is Edward Mcdonald and if anybody else knows anything I would love to discuss.

Kind Regards,

Darrell
