Charlie Palmer thinks this might have been taken about a fortnight after D-Day. He thinks F-Troop were relieved by the Paras 5 days after D-Day and were staying in Breville.

Lewes War Memorial
Joe's name appears on the north side of the war memorial in Lewes.
Charlie Palmer was with him when he died near Sword Beach and his wife Patricia was with Joe's wife when she got the news. I have made a brief film about this HERE.

Terrance Kealy (Keeley) No 4 Cdo.
Hello
I am told that Terrance Kealy (often referred to as Rifleman Keeley)was in No 4 Cdo. in WW2. He joined from the KRRC (King's Royal Rifle Corps). Is this true ? I would like to know, as I am a relative.
After the war, he was a Policeman for 29 or so years.
Could anybody tell me whether Terrance is in this photograph. he died age 89 in February 2012 in Thetford.
I would be interested for any information on his involvement in No.4 Cdo.
