Not 'pretty sure' now, that IS my dad (George Harris) - and I think that the man on the right (front row) is Tanky Bryne. I had the enormous pleasure of meeting Titch Garnett's daughter in Dieppe, 2014, and to realise that our dads were pals was amazing!

My grandfather, Joe Spicer, bottom row, second from the right. We attended the 70th anniversary commemoration at flushing with him on 1 Nov this year! He has a very similar picture to this one . A copy of it is in the fighting forth book.
