Update from Kate Johnston, daughter of Robert King MM : &quot;Seated from left to right are Ron Treptow (Sniper), Robert King M.M (my father), then Hugh Arthur(from Worthing), not known, and Cobber Kane ( query re id..note the comment below naming this man as CSM Frank Walsh MM).<br />
My husband is standing, far  left, and I am seated in front of my father. I remember the evening very well with many fond memories and I recall that “The Lads” drank and talked well into the  wee small hours !&quot;]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[The gentleman sitting and pointing at the bat is Frank Walsh who was CSM and from the A &amp; SH; probably my father's greatest pal in No. 9 and for years beyond. I met him and his wife and indeed others in their family several times.<br />
I think I was there when the photograph was taken as I recognise the young chap back left.<br />
It was a privilege to visit Fort William and meet these great people.]]></description>
