	I think this photo was taken first days of september 1944 or late August, in SAINT-MACLOU ( near River SEINE ). We could see the church. There is other photos with men of 1st commando Brigade there front of the chuch, in the gallery. 1st commando brigade stayed there, until their embarked in ARROMANCHES the 7th september.

	additional detail Bill Lowe had been CSM of 5 troop since at least Dec. 1941 ( see photos in gallery). I am not sure when he became RSM. RSM Beesley 3 Cdo was captured at Dieppe August 1942, and I know RSM Stenhouse 3 Cdo was wounded at Termoli early Oct.1943. Posted by Pete Rogers (Admin) on Wed 20 Sep 2017 09:21:22 EDT
