Hi Ron,
This is Quentine, my married name is Green. I have left my e-mail address with Pete Rogers for you to contact me. I have a few years to fill you in on so please contact me. I showed the landing craft picture to Mum and the physical details are certainly correct and the rank is correct. I also have a few war time pictures to add for your interest.
I look forward to speaking to you.
Regards
Quentine
