I believe the person top row no 11 to be my father Wilfred William Gordon Greenwood PO/X 6874.
I have a photo of him as part of a athletics team photo which he told me was taken in Malta around this time. I have quite a few photos of his time in 40 commando. I know he served in Malaya, Singapore, Korea and Malta between the dates 1946 when he joined and about 1953 or '54.
I would love a better copy of this picture if possible?
My email is [email protected]
Thanks!
